Where a certain sum is bequeathed, the legacy is not specific merely because the stock, funds or securities in which it is invested are described in the will.

Illustration

A bequeaths to B—

“10,000 rupees of my funded property”;

“10,000 rupees of my property now invested in shares of the East Indian Railway Company”;

“10,000 rupees, at present secured by mortgage of Rampur factory”.

None of these legacies is specific.
