The other one -half of the trust estate shall be retained by the trustee during the lifetime of <br />my remaining grandchild. During said period said surviving grandchild shall receive two - thirds <br />of the net income therefrom and the other one -third of the net income shall be divided equally <br />among the two Missionary Societies. Upon the death of said surviving grandchild, (but in no <br />event while my said wife and daughter or either of them are living), the principal of this <br />portion of the trust shall be distributed among said grandchild's surviving issue by right of <br />representation and said Church Missionary Societies, on the same basis as provided in paragraph <br />E above." <br />III. <br />After long and careful consideration I have arrived at the conclusion that I do not desire my <br />son -in -law, Arthur Wischmeier, to share in my estate or in the income therefrom, and the changes <br />above set forth in this codicil are made for that reason. <br />IV. <br />In'all other respects I ratify, confirm and continue in full force and effect my said will of <br />August 23, 1938 as amended by the First and second codicils thereto, executed February 24, 1939 <br />and June 8, 1942 respectively. <br />IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand at Lincoln, Nebraska this 11th day of March,1943. <br />Christ Peterson <br />Christ Beterson <br />This instrument was by Christ Peterson on the date hereof signed, published and declared by him to <br />be a third codicil to his last will and testament, in our presence and in the presence of each of us, <br />and we at his request and in his presence, we and each of us believing said Christ Peterson to be <br />of sound mind and memory and capable of recognizing the natural objects of his bounty and affection, <br />have hereunto subscribed our names as witnesses to said third codicil. <br />Dorothy F.Flitton residing at Lincoln, Nebraska. <br />Josephine S.Solde rillasesiding at Lincoln, Nebraska. <br />FOURTH CODICIL TO THE LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT- <br />OF <br />CHRIST PETERSON <br />I. Christ Peterson, of Lincoln, Lancaster County, Nebraska, hereby make, publish and dealate this <br />as a fourth codicil to my last will and testament of August 23, 1938, as modified by the first codicil <br />executed February 24, 1939, by the second codicil executed June 8, 1942 and by the third codicil <br />executed March 11, 1943; <br />I. <br />In paragraph A of Article II of my original will I provide that my wife, Winona Peterson, shall <br />during her lifetime receive the entire net income from the trust created by said Article II and that <br />in addition she shall have the right to occupy our home. In the first codicil to my will I provide <br />that if my wife is unable to assume the burden of managing her household and looking after her <br />affairs, my executor and trustee shall pay, from the income so provided by paragraph A of Article <br />II of my will, her personal expenses and the expenses of her home, these items being more fully <br />itemized in said codicil. <br />I now wish to provide, and it is my will and I hereby direct, that instead of my said wife <br />receiving "the entire net income from the trust estate during her lifetime" as provided in <br />paragraph A of Article II of my original will, she shall receive so much of said net income as in <br />the judgment of the Trustee is necessary and proper for her support,care and comfortable maintenance; <br />if for any reason my said wife is unable to assume the burden of managing her household and looking <br />after her affairs, I instruct my executor and trustee to pay, from the income provided for my said <br />wife by this fourth codicil to my will, her personal expenses, including the wages of any servants <br />or nurses that may be necessary, and all the expenses of maintaining her home including the taxes, <br />insurance and upkeep in addition to the usual current expenses. <br />As provided in said paragraph A of Article II o.f my original will, my wife shall have the right <br />to occupy our home ;therein described. <br />Any income not used for the purposes aforesaid shall be retained in the -trust by the trustee, or <br />in its discretion invested in accordance with the provisions of Article III of said will. <br />Inasmuch as my said original will gives my wife the entire net income from the trust, and under <br />the provisions of this fbarth codicil she is to receive only so much thereof as may be necessary <br />and proper for her support, care and comfortable maintenance, I wish to state that this change is <br />not made to deprive her, but on the contrary has been discussed with my wife and meets with her <br />entire approval. We believe that the income will be in excess of her needs and if that is the case <br />she prefers to have the excess accumulated in the trust for the benefit of the ultimate beneficiaries <br />named therein. <br />II. <br />To the extent that they are inconsistent with any of the foregoing provisions of this fourth <br />cod i,cil, I cancel, annul and revoke paragraph A of Article II of my said will dated. August 23, <br />1930, and the first codicil thereto dated February 24, 1939; and in all other respects I ratify, <br />confirm and continue in full force and effect my said will and the three codicils thereto above <br />specified. <br />
