of the trustees, and by the same deed she granted and assigned to them all the real and personal estate to which in the event of the death of her brother and sister respectively she might become entitled under his or her will of as heiress-at-law of next of kin. The trusts of the settlement were to pay a small annuity to her stepmother, and subject thereto for herself for life with usual remainders over. Gertrude Law died in 1895 intestate and a spinster, whereupon one-half of her personal estate devolved upon her sister, and was in pursuance of the settlement handed over to the trustees. In 1902 Charles Towry, Lord
Ellenborough, died intestate and a bachelor, and letters of administration to his estate were granted to his sister, Emily Law, who was his heiress-at-law and sole next of kin. Emily Law was not desirous of bringing any further property into the settlement, and she now applied by originating summons, in the matter of Lord Ellenborough's estate and in the matter of the settlement for the determination of the question whether her interest as heiress-at-law and sole next of kin was effectually assigned to the trustees, and whether she bound to assign or transfer such interest. The Chancery Division of the High Court considered the case in 1903 and held that the trustees of the settlement could not compel Emily to hand over the property to the trustees.
