ESTATE OF HIBBS
GOESTO DAUGHTER
Mrs. Helen Legg and De
scendants to Share Trust
Fund of Financier.
William Beale Hibbs, late head of
W. B. Hibbs & Co., who died January
21, left his entire estate in trust for his
daughter, Mrs. Helen Hibb6 Legg of
this city and her descendants, It was
revealed when his will was filed late
yesterday in District Court.
No indication was given of the size
ef the estate, which will be disclosed
later In a petition for probate.
In order to avoid possible embar
rassment to his partners in the brok
erage firm, Mr. Hibbs authorized his
executors and trustees to delay for
two years liquidation of his share in
the business.
The American Security and Trust
Co., and John S. Flannery, local at
torney, were named executors and
trustees. They were directed to pay
the income from the estate to Mrs.
Legg in quarterly installments.
After Mrs. Legg's death, the income
Will go to her lineal descendants in
equal shares until 20 years after the
death of the last of the descendants
who were living at the death of the
testator. Then the principal will be
distributed among Mrs. Legg's living
descendants. Should she have no de
ecendants at that time, the estate will
go to Hibbs’ heirs at law and next
of kin.
The will was executed February 5,
1931, and was molded Into its final
form by two codicils, the first dated
November 5. 1932, and the second
June 14, 1934.
