Late Lord Riddell's Benevolence

GENIUS FOR FRIENDSHIP

Lord Riddell's genius for friendship Nothing could better indicate than the care with which in his will he remembered his friends and as- Bociates in various walks of life.

Even more striking is the amount he bequeathed to charity.

When the estate duty (4784,021), his provision for Lady Riddell and his long list of legacies and annul- tles are deducted, there is still a sum in the region of £600,000.

The Newspaper Press Fund and the Royal Free Hospital, each of· which receive a third of the residue, will therefore benefit to the extent of £200,000, and the Printers Peri- slon Fund to half that amount.
