Contents include: check-lists for wills * principles of drafting and construction * introductory clause * revocation of wills * appointment of executors, trustees, and guardians * legacies * devises * ademption, satisfaction, advancement, and the release of debts * fully secret and half-secret trusts * residuary bequests * alternative disposition or accruer over in the event that a bequest fails * executor and trustee powers * miscellaneous declarations and directions * attestation clauses/testimoniums * complete wills and codicils
