                                       - 73 -                                         
               C.  Conclusion                                                         
               Because petitioners have failed to show that their                     
          computation of the value of the children’s obligation to pay any            
          2035 tax is reliable, we do not accept it as establishing any               
          proceeds received by petitioners and reducing the value of the              
          net gifts made by them.                                                     
          VIII.  Conclusion                                                           
               The fair market value of the gifted interest on the date of            
          the gift was $9,883,832 ($4,941,916 for each half thereof).                 
          Petitioners are entitled to an aggregate charitable contribution            
          deduction under section 2522 for the transfer to CFT in the                 
          amount of $415,019 ($207,510 apiece).                                       
               To reflect the foregoing,                                              

                                                       Decision will be               
                                                  entered under Rule 155.             


               Reviewed by the Court.                                                 
               WELLS, COHEN, SWIFT, GERBER, COLVIN, GALE, and THORNTON,               
          JJ., agree with this majority opinion.
