All the rest of my personal possessions I am ordering to be sold by my executor and administrator and the proceeds whall be invested, with the income from it to go to my said wife. The use and the income from my farm, situated in Fairview Twp, Erie Co, Penn., is hers as long as she shall live. Should she re-marry after my death, she shall retain what is hers by law, and the rest shall go to my children in equal shares.
