Brussels is located near the southern tip of the peninsula on a fertile ridge top with some shallow valley slopes which makes it a suitable site for farming and orchards.

My farm in Pike County, Illinois, known as the Smith Farm, *** together with all of the chattels thereon including the contents of the improvements thereon, and the landlord's share of all unharvested crops and benefits pertaining to said farm ***." Wittmond made several smaller bequests and left the residue of his estate to Burch.
Specifically, Stewart argues that the court placed the burden of proof on her to show that the contents of the box were a gift, while the burden of proof should have been on Burch to show that the box contained estate assets.
In support of her position, Stewart directs our attention to decisions from other jurisdictions holding that the contents of a safe deposit box are presumed to belong to the lessee of the box.
