Sawyer, S.

The bulk of the testator’s property consisted of three parcels of real property. One parcel was productive *526and two parcels were unproductive. One parcel of unimproved property still remains unsold, except that a portion was sold for $68,400. This property has steadily increased in value until its assessed valuation is now nearly three and one-half times more than it was in 1893. The trustees have paid the taxes on this unimproved property out of income, and Mrs. White, the life beneficiary, claims it should have been paid out of principal.
