Bank of Delaware v. Delaware Trust Company
Supreme Court of Delaware
1Per curiam
In this proceeding arising from a request for instructions as to the proper distribution of the corpus of the trust, the Chancery Court’s opinion appears at 269 A.2d 256. For the reasons therein stated, we affirm the conclusion of the Chancery Court as to the intent of the testatrix. It is our opinion that the language of the Will, when viewed in its entirety and in the light of surrounding circumstances, is abundantly clear to warrant the conclusion reached by the Chancery Court as to intent.
The appellants rely upon Bedyk v. Bank of Delaware, Del.Supr., 176 A.2d 196 (1961). We find no error…
