to pay said legacies and the annuities hereinafter mentioned,"
with authority to change the investments as in his judgment
may be proper. The will then proceeds as follows :
"Item. To my sister, Catharine Kelly, now of Baltimore, I
give and bequeath one hundred dollars a year during her life, the
said annuity to be due and payable six months from the day of
my decease, and annually thereafter, during her life."

life, for her sole and separate use, and free from the control of
her husband or any liability for his debts, to be due and to com-
