Executors and administrators, \u00a7 379*\u2014when personal property not primary fund for payment of debts. Ordinarily, personal property is the primary fund for the payment of debts and general legacies, unless a contrary intention appears in the will; but where from the whole will it appears by express language or necessary implication that a particular portion of the estate is to be the primary fund for the payment of debts, the remainder of the estate will be exonerated from the burden.\n2. Wills, \u00a7 489*-\u2014when construed as charging real estate with payment of debts. Where a will reads, \u201cThat after all my just debts and funeral expenses are paid, I give, devise and bequeath to my wife,\u201d certain real estate, and there are clauses following which dispose of all the testator\u2019s money in a bank, held it was clearly the intention of the testator to charge his real estate with the- payment of debts, and that the Probate Court had power to order a sale of the realty to pay the debts and widow\u2019s awards though the personal estate was sufficient to pay the same.",
