D. Upon the death of both my said wife and daughter, two thirds (2/3) of the net income shall be <br />divided between and paid to my grandson, A.Chester Wischmeier, my granddaughter, Janet Ann <br />Wischmeier, and my son- in- lmy,Arthur Wischmeier, in equal shares; and the other one -third <br />(113) of said net income shall be paid share and share alike to the two Missionary Societies <br />above mentioned. In event of the death of my said son- in- law,his interest in the income shall <br />cease and thereafter each of my said grandchildren shall receive one -third (1/3) of the-net <br />income, the other one -third (173) continuing to be divided between the two Missionary Societies <br />as hereinbefora provided. <br />E. Upon the death of either grandcY� ild (but in no event while my,said wife and daughter or either <br />of them are living) one -half (1/2) of the trust estate shall be divided outright among his <br />or her surviving issue by right of representation, the Women's Foreign Missionary Society of <br />the First Methodist Episcopal Church of University Place and the Women's Home Missionary <br />Societ of said church on the following basis: Each surviving child of said deceased grand- <br />child including by right of representation the surviving issue-of any deceased child of such <br />grandchild) shall receive one equal share and each of said Missionary Societies shall receive <br />one equal share. In other ords, it is not my intention that each of said church societies <br />should receive one -third (173) of said share and that the children or issue of my deceased <br />grandchild should have but one -third (1/3) thereof to divide among themselves. For example <br />if said deceased grandchild has three children, all of whom survive him, each of them shall <br />receive one -fifth of said share and each of said Societies shall receive one -fifth thereof; <br />if said grandchild has three children, two of whom survive and one of whom predeceased, leaving <br />issue, each of said surviving children shall receive one fifth of said share, the issue" of the <br />deceased child shall divide one -fifth by right of representation,-and each of said church <br />societies shall receive one fifth thereof; and so on. It said grandchild is survived neither <br />by children nor the issue of children, said one -half share of the trust shall <br />-2- <br />be divided equally between the Women's Foreign Missionary Society of the First Methodist <br />Episcopal Church of University Place and the Women's Home Missionary Society of said Church. <br />1. The other one -half (1/2) of the trust estate shall be retained by the trustee during the <br />lifetime of my remaining grandchild. During said period said surviving grandchild shall <br />receive one -half (1/2) the net income therefrom and the other one -half (1/2) of net income <br />shall be divided equally among the two Missionary Societies and Arthur Wischmeier; in event <br />of the death or remarriage of Arthur Wischmeier his portion of the net income shall be paid <br />to the issue of said surviving issue. Upon the death of said surviving grandehild,(but in <br />no event while my said wife and daughter or either of them are living), the principal thereof <br />shall be distributed among said grandchild's surviving issue by right of representation and <br />said church Missionary Societies, on the same basis as provided in "E" above. <br />IlI. <br />The Trustee is authorized to hold and retain as an investment for the trust estate any and <br />all real estate, securities and other property owned by me during my lifetime. <br />The Trustee shall assume full management of my farms, collect all the rent therefrom, pay the <br />expense of operation and management and pay all taxes on or before March let of each year. The <br />Trustee shall furnish the material to keep the buildings and other improvements on said farms <br />in good repair at all times. The tenant in each instance is to perform or furnish any labor at <br />his own expense. Each five years all buildings shall be painted with two coats of paint, the <br />material to be furnished by the Trustee and the labor to be furnished at his own expense by the <br />tenant. <br />All expenses of such farms and other properties, including the Trustee's fees and other <br />expenses of the trust estate, are to be paid from the income of the trust before any income is <br />disbursed to any beneficiaries under Article II hereof; and wherever the term "net income" is used <br />in Article II, its meaning is as defined in this Aricle III. It is my further suggestion that <br />the Trustee accumulate and keep on hand at all times in a separate farm income account the sum of <br />$1,000 derived from farm rentals or other farm income as a reserve so that in case of crop failure <br />or other unexpected adverse development there will be funds available for the payment of taxes and <br />other expenses. <br />It is my desire that the farms which I own be retained by the Trustee during the term of this <br />Trust so that they may be turned over to the beneficiaries at its termination, for it is my <br />belief that over a period of years said farms will continue to prove a safe investment paying <br />a reasonable return. Recognizing however, the possibility of changes or developments which <br />cannot be foreseen at this time, authorize the Trustee to dispose of all or any of said farms <br />if in its judgment it is for the best interests of the trust and the beneficiaries so to do; but <br />only upon the express condition that the reasons for said sale are explained to the then benefi- <br />ciaries of the trust and that such sale is approved in writing by all of the then beneficiaries <br />of the trust who have attained the age of majority. <br />Proceeds from the payment or sale of any security or from the sale of any farm land which is <br />sold in conformity with the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall be invested, reinvested <br />and kept invested in such securities as are defined by law as legal investments for trusts in the <br />State of Nebraska. <br />IV. <br />The Trustee shall render complete annual statements showing all receipts and disbursements, <br />and all transactions in the principal account, to the beneficiaries of the trust. <br />V. <br />In the event The First Trust Company of Lincoln, Nebraska shall at anytime become a part <br />of any corporation or shall be merged with another corporation or corporations into a new cor- <br />poration, or in the event it shall transfer its trust business to The First National Bank of <br />Lincoln, Nebraska or to another bank which succeeds to the <br />business of said The First National Bank, then such corporation of which it becomes a part, or <br />such new corporation created by merger, or said transferee or successor bank, as the case may be, <br />shall without further act on the part of any Court or person be substituted in the place and <br />stead of said Trustee herein named and shall have all the rights, powers, duties and liabilities of <br />said Trustee herein named. <br />V1. <br />Nether the principal nor the income of the trust estate shall be liable for the debts of any <br />beneficiary hereof nor shall the same be subject to seizure by any crdditor of any beneficiary <br />under any writ or proceeding at law or in equity, and no beneficiary hereunder shall have any <br />power to sell, assign, transfer, encumber or in any other manner to anticipate or dispose of this <br />or her interest in the trust estate or the income produced thereby. <br />V11. <br />In any case in which the Trustee is required to divide the principal of the trust estate in <br />parts or shares, or to distrubute the same, it is authorized and empowered in its sold discretion <br />to make division or distribution in hind, or party in kind and partly in money.
