MONEY TO BE CAST IN SEA
A CURIOUS WILL
One of the most curious wills evar admitted to probate by the English court was that of Mr. Alfred Henry Frend, of Rich- mond-road, Twickanbam, other- wise known as Henry Shrapnel. He left an estate valued at £1,019 gross, not a large sum for carry- ing out so many instructions.
He directs that his trustees shall never employ lawyers un- less compelled to do soy and that the Public Trustee shall never he employed.
"Beyond taxation," he adds none of my property, which for] this purpose shall include trust funds, shall ever go to the British State. whose oppression fig- tensified by officials) falls so terribly heavily on my class as to be alpsly exterminating and which has so over-powering an eye to enriching its members that it lost the United States of America, and keeps in force laws which all humanity knows to be unjust, and scorns to respect Bilde teaching. My feelings are:| God save the peoples in spite of those over them luxuriating on their moneys and curtailing their liberty.
In the event of any dan-) gerous attempt for obtaining parliamentary 44 other legal authority to alter the provisions of this my will, my trustees shall remove the trust out of the home jurisdiction into that of another power, or in the very last ex tremity pay the whole capital to foreign societies alleviating the sufferings of animals."
Mr. Frend left the income from his property to his sisters, or the survivor of them. for life, and then his trustees are to see to the upkeep and improvement of his
grave.
He adds that as be pities the weak, and has "grievously suffer ed and seen others suffer by the rapacity and vile extravagance of the British State, and the unfaith-- fulness of public servants," his. trustees are to assist persons of insuficient means to contest and embarrass any unlawful ex- actions and doubtful claims by the British Inland Revenue, and especially to fix personally on any Civil servant any considered! deviation from law outside eri- bezzlement as recommended by that public benefactor Mr. Gib son Bowles, who at great expense and trouble showed up a gigantic robbery obstinately persisted in by the British Inland Revenue.”
The trustees are to attract attention to this provision after the death of the sisters by adver tising. The advertisement is to: appear at least once in every four years, in at least one daily paper, preference being given to that paper most free from party [palities.
Further uses of the fund:-
To alleviate the sufferings of creatures below mankind other- wise than by subsciption to a society..
To assist in preserving anti- quities or the beauties of England or striving to assert public rights. If possible to alleviate the suffering of taxation victims crushed or hard bit by heavy fines or in jeopardy of imprison- ment owing to their poverty.
To subscribe to any society of body (not being party politicians or companies) striving to reduce Casation in Great Britain.
If steps be taken to set aside his will, and the trustees cannot remove the trust funds to an- other country all the funds arei to be put. into a sinkable box (sealed by S magistrate ΟΣ chartered accountant, who is to receive a fee of four guineas for his services). taken to sea, and sunk in mid Atlantic, the captain of the ship to certify that such has been done and to receive therefore a fee of three guiness,
Probate was granted to Dame Alice Harriet Moody, of Croy don.
