George, should not come into the full possession of his share of the estate until he had reached the age of forty years, the estate being divided between the son and the wife in equal shares and in the event of the death of the wife the entire estate to come to the son but to be in the hands of the executor until the son had reached the age of forty. The will provides that the executor shall pay to the son the sum equal to that which he earns at his occupation whatsoever that it may be, and not more.
