Mullally and Thomas O'Neil both of St. John's, hereinafter called my Trustees, to be the executors and trustees of this my Will.  I give and bequeath the land together with the dwelling houses thereon situate on Alexander and Job Streets, provided that my husband James be not living at the time of my death, to my Trustees upon the Trusts following:-  that is to say
To pay the income thereof to my sons Gerald, John and Michael until the marriage of Gerald.  Upon the marriage of my son Gerald, my Trustees shall pay the whole of said income to him, and eight years after his said marriage should he then be living my Trustees shall assure the said land and dwelling houses to him absolutely.  Should my said son Gerald die after marrying and before a period of eight years shall have elapsed between his marriage and death, and leave issue surviving him of said marriage, my Trustees shall assure the said land and dwelling houses unto the use of said issue.  Should my son Gerald die unmarried or being married leave no issue surviving him, [Subject however to the Trust hereinbefore contained] then my Trustees shall assure the said land and dwelling houses unto the use of the issue of any of my children marrying, and if there be more than one assure the same to them in equal shares.  Should all of my children die unmarried or being married leave no issue surviving them or either of them, then the said land and houses shall be held by my Trustees and the income thereof applied towards the education and maintenance of the sons of poor Roman Catholic parents who shall study for the purpose of taking Holy Orders.  Should my said husband James be living at the time of my death, I give and bequeath to him the aforesaid land and dwelling houses.
