— Testatrix gave a fund in trust to pay the income to her sister Rosa for life, and at the death of Rosa to pay the principal to Eleanor and Carl, in the event that they arrive at the age of 30 years; otherwise “then I direct that the share of either or both of them be held in trust by my said executors and trustees until he, she, or they shall have arrived at the age of thirty years, and be distributed and paid over to them as above set out.” Rosa has died. Eleanor and Carl had not then attained the age of 30 years. The auditing judge awarded the principal to them.
