Summary
In Waldron v. Schlang, 47 Hun (N.Y.), 252, it was held that where a testatrix empowered her executor, at any time within five years, to sell all her estate, both real and personal, and divide the same into equal portions, to be paid to certain legatees, such power to sell did not become inoperative by the lapse of the five years without its exercise, and that sale made by the executor after the expiration of that time passed a valid title to the property to the purchaser.
