             power to disburse such amounts from the principal and                    
             income of the trust as the trustee decides is necessary "in              
             his absolute discretion" for the "proper health, education               
             and support" of the surviving spouse.  Article Fifth (b) of              
             the decedent's will states as follows:                                   

                       If at any time, in the absolute discretion                     
                  of the Trustee or co-Trustees, my wife, LAURA B.                    
                  RAPP, should for any reason be in need of funds                     
                  for her proper health, education and support, the                   
                  Trustee may in his absolute discretion pay to or                    
                  apply for the benefit of my wife, such amounts                      
                  from the principal and income of the trust                          
                  estate, up to the whole thereof, as the Trustee                     
                  may from time to time deem necessary or advisable                   
                  for her use and benefit.                                            

             The 1986 wills provide that on the death of the surviving                
             spouse, the trust shall cease and the trustee shall                      
             distribute the residue of the trust to the decedent's sons               
             or their children.                                                       
                  Before he prepared the 1986 wills, Mr. Clark had                    
             become acquainted with the size and complexity of the                    
             decedent's business and financial holdings due to the fact               
             that he had handled legal matters for the decedent and his               
             businesses beginning in the mid-1970's.  The decedent had                
             also given Mr. Clark a personal financial statement dated                
             April 30, 1986, listing assets of $13,530,671, liabilities
