(1) The following opinion was given by Mr. Bell on the

above form:

"I THINK the two legacies to the two present children are good; so that the limitations over to their sons be made payable at twenty-one, and not at twenty-five, as wished for, that would either have no effect to postpone the payment after twenty-one, or it will make it void-and I fear it will be void. As to the legacies to the children which may be born, notwithstanding all the care that has been taken, they will, I think, be void, and it will be better to omit every thing as to any such children to be born, for I do not think it will be possible to give any such legacies to unborn illegitimate children. The only thing will be for the testator to keep a codicil in blank by him ready to be filled up and executed when a child is born. He may also have one ready to be filled up and executed in case she should prove with child; but it is at least very doubtful whether the child, being illegitimate, can take any thing until it is actually born, and has got a name by reputation, which it may have as soon as born.
