  BEQUEST. A gift by last will or testament; a legacy. (q. v.) This word is 
  sometimes, though improperly used, as synonymous with devise. There is, 
  however, a distinction between them. A bequest is applied, more properly, to 
  a gift by will of a legacy, that is, of personal property; devise is 
  properly a gift by testament of real property. Vide Devise.
