Where two or more beneficiaries are designated to take successively by reason of survivorship under another person’s disposition of property and there is insufficient evidence that these beneficiaries died otherwise than simultaneously, the property thus disposed of must be divided into as many equal portions as there are successive beneficiaries and these portions must be distributed respectively to those who would have taken in the event that each designated beneficiary had survived.
