What is DEVISE? A testamentary disposition of land or realty; a gift of real property by the last will and testament of the donor. Scholle v. Scholle, 113 N. Y. 201, 21 N. E. 84;Ferebee v. Procter, 19 N. C. 410; Pratt v. McGhee, 17 S. C. 428; Iu re Fetrowâs Estate, 58 Pa. 427; Jenkins v. Tobin, 31 Ark. 300; In re Daileyâs Estate, 43 Misc.
In contrast, a general will devise is an item that is payable from the general assets of the estate. Thus, if the testator does not specify how the gift is to be paid, then the recipient will be paid from the general estate funds. The difference between general and specific devises can sometimes be very slight.
