Teshuvot Maharam

Q. A left his possessions to his sons on condition that they give a certain amount to his four daughters, and if they have no cash that they should pay the daughters with real property. One of the daughters died before A.
A. A's sons must pay their three sisters three quarters of the designated sum, and may keep the other quarter for themselves, even if the deceased daughter left heirs. The death of one daughter does not annul the gift to the other three.
