The object of this suit is to have the Court construe the Last Will and Testament of Henry N. Gittings, to the end that the estate, to which the plaintiff is enitled thereunder may be determined, and for such other and further relief as their case may require.
The Bill of Complaint filed in the above cause states that Henry N. Gittings, late of Balimore County, de-deased, departed this life in the year 1863, leaving a last Will and Testament, duly executed to pass real estate which Will was admitted to probate by the Orphans' Court of Balimore County and letters Testamentary thereon graned to George A. Williams, a copy of said Will being filed with the bill.
That by the first clause of said Will of Henry N. Gitings, he devised all his property, real and personal (except such as was otherwise provided for) to John S. Gittings, in trust for the complainant, who was then Ann E. Gittings, his only child, and her heirs under a certain condition, mentioned in said Will, which condition provided that the said Ann E. Gittings should change her name to Rebedca Nichols Gittings, which was done, as appears by a certified copy of decree filed in this case.
The bill further states that in the event of failure to change her name to Rebecca Nichols Gittings, the estate was to be held in trust for his sisters, Margaret Gittings and Eleanor Gittings now Eleanor Brogden, and their heirs in, equal portions, and in the event of the death of either of said sisters, the descendants of either to take the share of his or her parents.
That the said Margaret Gittings departed this life, unmarried and without issfue, leaving however, a sister, Eleanor Brogden; a niece, Julia Read, who is married to Ha^rry S- Read;-a nephew, James C. Gittings; a nephew, Ernest Gittings, all of whom reside in Baltimore City and are of full age, and are the children of a deceased brother, James Gittings; also two nieces, Elizabeth D. Jones, who is married to John Paul Jones and Eleanor Addison Gittings, unmarried, the children of a deceased brother, William Gittings, all of whom reside in Washington, D. C.
That the children of the complainants are: Rich'd. E. Yellott, whose wife is Mamie Yellott, both of whom are of full age and reside in New Mexico. George Yellott, who is of full age, and whose whereabouts are unknown; Howard Yellott, unmarried; Daniel D. Yellott, whose wife is Settie Yellott, all of whom are of full age and reside in South Dakota; Emily J. Blandford, whose husband is Douglas M. Bland-ford, both of whom are of full age, and reside in Baltimore County, and Henry W. Yellott, whose wife is named Anna Yellott, both of whom are of full age and reside in the State of Minnesota,
That John Charles Gittings. mentioned in said will, is dead, without is.sue surviving him.
That under the terms of said will the complainant is advised that she, having complied with the terms and conditions of said Will as provided for therein, is entitled to a fee simple estate in the real estate devised thereunder, but as the question has arisen as to just what your complainant is entitled to take under the Will, a construction of same by the Court is necessary to determine same to the end that any cloud may be removed frcfm said title.
That the complainant has been in-absolute undisputed possession of the property since becoming of age, some forty years ago.
It is thereupon this 7th day of December, 1920, Ordered by the Circuit Court for Baltimore County, in Equity, that the plaintiffs by causing a copy of this order to be inserted in some newspaper published in Baltimore County, once in each of four successive weeks before the 10th dav of January, 1920, give notice to said defendants of the object and substance of this bill, warning them to be and appear in this Court in person or by solicitor, On or before the 10th day of January,
1921, to show cause, if any they have, why a decree ought not to be passed as prayed.
