Opinion

Per Curiam,

We concur in the opinion of the Orphans’ Court that the discretion of Jemima Welsh, in the use of the legacy bequeathed by her husband was absolute and that in the absence of evidence that any part of it was left at her death, the inference was that she had exercised her undoubted right and had used all of it.

The decree is affirmed.
