The will is typewritten and con- tains the statement (through which a line has been drawn) that the Guaranty Trust Company of Lanc aster shall be one of the executors of the estate. The other executor is his) wife, Mrs. Minnie E. Jacobs, and to The her alone the letters testamentary were granted by the registers of wills.
