As a general rule, legacies are not charges upon realty unless expressly or impliedly made so hy the terms of the will.\n2. Wills, \u00a7 476* \u2014 when intention that legacy he charge on realty will prevail. If it was the intention of the testator that a legacy should he a charge upon the realty, that intention will prevail, although it is not shown in express words, since it may be implied from the whole will taken together.\n3.

A pecuniary legacy held a charge upon the realty where the will contained a general residuary clause covering all of the remainder of the testator\u2019s property.\nSee Illinois Notes Digest, Vols.
