Hayward) and at her death all will pass to their children (and issue), but the trustees may still keep money invested in the testator's business, allowing £5% p.a. interest on the capital (as will be calculated by stock-taking either made after any child (or issue)'s death or being the last compiled before G. Singer's decease), adding interest to the residuary estate.
