    Error to Lucas Appeals.
    Judgment reversed.
    635. INHERITANCE . TAX — 1. The exemption from this tax of property passing to an institution for public charity, does not apply to the succession of property to be used lor not less than 50 nor more than 60 years for profit, even if„ thereafter, its accumulation is to be dispensed as a public charity.
    2. The succession, to a trustee for dispensing charity only to Master Masons, etc., is not one, “for purposes only of public charity.’*
   ROBINSON, J.

1. The provision of Section 5334, General Code, “The succession to any property passing * * * to or for the use of an institution for purposes only of public charity * * * shall not be subject to the preceding sections of this sub-division,” does not apply to the succession of property to be used for a period of not less than fifty nor more than sixty years exclusively for profit and the multiplication of profits, even though such .property and its accumulation is thereafter to be dispensed as a public charity, the purpose of the testator being not alone to dispense a public charity but also to increase and augment the estate he has left.

2. The succession of property to a trustee to be used for the purpose of dispensing charity only to aged Master Masons, their wives, widows and dependent orphans, or superannuated clergymen, is not a succession of property “for purposes only of public charity.” (Morning Star Lodge v. Hayslip 23 Ohio St. 144, approved and followed.)
