New York Court of Appeals November 27, 1888 (In Re the Appeal From the Assessment of Taxes Upon the Legatees, Under the Will of Cager)

Ruger, Ch. J.

While we concur in the reversal by the General Term of the decree of the surrogate, imposing taxes upon the interest devised, to some of the legatees, by the will of William Cager, we do not approve of the reasons assigned therefor by that court.
