The will then contains the provisions:

. “ 9th. It is my desire, and I so order it, that my debtors be not pressed, but that they be allowed by my executors reasonable time wherein to pay what is due on my estate.

“ 10th. It is my desire, and I so order it, that my executors deposit in some bank or other secure place in the City of San Francisco, all rents derived from the property I own in Virginia City, Nev., and all the rents and profits derived from my [541]estate, and that the same be applied by them in the manner hereinafter mentioned.

“ 11th. It is my desire, and I so order it, that out of the aforesaid rents and profits my executors shall send to my mother Marieta Eadovich $75 every six months during her lifetime, for her maintenance.

“ 12th. It is my desire, and I so order it, that my executors shall give such education as they shall deem fit and proper to my nephews and nieces, children of Biaggio Eadovich, and that all the expenses of said education be paid out of the rents and profits of my estate; and in the event that the same be not sufficient to meet said expenses, then I direct my executors to sell any portion of any real estate that may be necessary for the purpose.

“ 13th. After all the above gifts and bequests have been paid, after the annuities to my mother shall have ceased by her death, and after all the expenses of education of the children of my brother Biaggio shall have been paid, I give, devise, and bequeath the residue and remainder to my nephews and nieces, children of my brothers and sisters.” •
