## Opinion text

McNEILL, C. J.
(dissenting.) The majority opinion extends the rule announced in the case of Roberson et al. v. Hurst, 80 Okla. 115 , 190 P. 402 , as applicable to a testamentary trustee. I am unwilling to acquiesce in that rule when the power to mortgage is not specifically conferred in the will.
