In this trustee’s accounting a construction of the will is asked to determine whether taxes, costs and an attorney’s fee assessed by the Republic of Germany against legatees, who are residents of that country, are payable out of the residuary estate. These taxes, costs and attorney’s fees together with the penalty thereon amount to between $20,000 and $25,000.
