2 If a lunatic or minor is appointed testamentary guardian, he cannot act until, if a lunatic, he recovers his faculties, and, if a minor, he attains the age of twentyfive years. 3 There is no doubt that a guardian may be appointed for and from a certain time, or conditionally, or before the institution of the heir.
The English law of testamentary succession to personalty has become a modified form of the dispensation under which the inheritances of Roman citizens were administered.
I have had the honour and pleasure, Sir, of being concerned against you in some little testamentary matters. How do you do, sir? 'My clerk will attend to any business you may have come upon, Mr Brass, said the notary, turning away. 'Thank you Sir, said Brass, 'thank you, I am sure.
Having but the vaguest notion of French testamentary law, she was dismayed to learn that the compulsory division of property made it impossible for a father to benefit his eldest son at the expense of the others.
A good deal can be got at by means of discussion and arrangement; but a "German" and "nobly-serene" opera, such as Mendelssohn in his delicate ambition dreamt of, is not exactly a thing that can be manufactured nor old nor new testamentary recipes will serve the purpose.

Nay withal, before these testamentary bickerings are settled, here has a new Joint-Heritage fallen: on which may rise discussions. Poor Uncle Ernst of Osnabruck to whom George I., chased by Death, went galloping for shelter that night, and who could only weep over his poor Brother dead has not survived him many months. The youngest Brother of the lot is now gone too.
In the United States the absolute liberty of testamentary disposition enables a wealthy father to found a family almost as perfectly as if the right of entail existed, and the bulk of large fortunes is constantly left by will to the most capable son, in order that he may keep up the family name, the family estates, and the family pride.
