This Is The Law
K 39
By ROBERT E. LEE
(For the N. C. Bar Association)
HUMOROUS WILLS
One of the strangest places to
find items of humor in the law
would appear to be in the wilis
of testators. Wills are written
when testators must consciously
face the contemplation of death.
Nevertheless, incidents of pure
humor may at times be found in
recorded wills.
One testator directed that no
woman be present at his funeral.
The love of the French people
for the culinary arts is reflected
by a provision in a Frenchman’s
will that a new cooking - recipe
should be posted cn the testa
tor’s tomb each day.
A merchant recognizing the
uncertainties of life gave the
following directions to his law
yer: “Give the equity I have in
my car to my son—he will have
to go to work to keep up the
payments. Give my good will
to the supply house—they took
some awful chances on me and
are entitled to something. My
equipment you can give to the
junk man—he has had his eye
on it for several years. I want
six of my creditors for pall
bearers—they have carried me
so long they might as well fin
ish the job.”
One man left all of his prop
erty to the devil. The name of
the legatee appeared in capital
letters throughout the will. The
inference was that the/ testator
wished to make a good impres
sion upon him, with an eye to

securing indulgence when they
met.
A man who had made a fo
tune in the financial world
wrote in his will:
“To my wife, I leave her
lover, and the knowledge that I
wasn’t the fool She thought I
was. •
“To my son, 1 leave the plea
sure of earning a living. For
twenty-five years he thought
the pleasure was mine. He was
mistaken.
“To my daughter, I leave
$200,000. She will need it. The
only good piece of business her
husband ever did was to marry
her.
“To my valet, I leave the
clothes he has been stealing
from me _ regularly for ten
years, also the fur coat he wore
last winter while I was in Palm
Beach.
“To my chauffeur, I leave my
cars. He almost ruined them,
and I want him to have the sat
isfaction of finishing the job.”
