96 P. 484 | Kan. | 1908
On September 26, 1905, Eleanora Miles, widow, and W. K.

We agree with the plaintiff that the transaction did not constitute a gift inter vivos nor causa mortis, and that the instrument was not testamentary. But we hold that it created a complete and executed trust. It is thought that every question raised by the plaintiff is disposed of adversely to his contention in the opinion in Miles v. Miles, ante, p. 382, and therefore the judgment is affirmed.
