             Unless stated otherwise, all section references are to the               
             Internal Revenue Code in effect for the date of the                      
             decedent's death.                                                        
                  After concessions, the sole issue for decision is                   
             whether petitioner is eligible to deduct, as an allowance                
             of marital deduction under section 2056(a), the value of                 
             certain property distributed to a testamentary trust for                 
             the benefit of the decedent's surviving spouse.  This                    
             issue turns on whether the subject property is "qualified                
             terminable interest property" within the meaning of section              
             2056(b)(7).

             by the parties and the exhibits attached thereto are
