Farmers Trust Co., Excr. v. Wilson Et Ux.

Opinion by

Mr. Justice Jones,

These appeals are from a judgment in ejectment entered on the pleadings, the relevant facts of the case not being in dispute. The question of law involved is whether the testatrix intended a devise in remainder to her heirs at law to go to such persons only as would be her heirs according to the law as it existed at the time of the execution of her will or such as were her heirs under the law in force at the date of her death. The learned court below took the latter view and entered judgment accordingly. The circumstances in which the question arises are as follows.
