STONE, J.*

This appeal from a decree determining interests in an estate, presents a question of the manner in which the rule against perpetuities (Civ. Code, § 715.2) is to be applied to general testamentary powers of appointment. The case was tried before the 1963 amendments to the Civil Code pertaining to the rule against perpetuities became effective.
