Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court November 27, 1888 (Mixter v. Woodcock)

C. Allen, J.

We cannot find in this will anything sufficient to give more than a life estate in the land to Mrs. Luther. The furniture and wearing apparel were given to her without qualification ; the house and lot, and all the rest and residue of the testator’s estate, real, personal, and mixed, were given to her to have and to hold for and during the term of her natural life.
