ability.

of this, my Last Will and Testament, and direct that no bond for the faithful
performance of her duties as such Executrix be required of her and I hereby
authorize and empower my said Executrix, if and whenever in her discretion it
is deemed advisable for the payment of debts or for the purpose of liquidating
my estate for cash and making distribution thereof in cash instead of in kind
