Description

This appeal involves a construction of the residuary clause of
the last will and testament of Nita Jackson, deceased. The
residuary clause of decedent's will reads: "All the rest and
residue of my estate I give, devise and bequeath unto Mattie
Grubb of Esbone, Kansas, and to my lawful heirs." The trial court concluded the residuary clause passed one-half
of the residue of the estate of Nita Jackson to Mattie Grubb and
the remaining one-half to the testatrix's lawful heirs per
stirpes. The executor argues that the testatrix intended a gift
to a class composed of Mattie Grubb and the heirs of the
testatrix and that a per capita distribution was intended.
