To Heroes

MISS Audrey Carden, wealthy London woman, admired courage and jresource above all things.

To her, these qualitles were sym- bolised by two bodies of men-the firemen and the Canadian "mounties

She admired the two forces much that in her will, proved re- cently she left £20,000 to the Pro- fessional Fire Brigades Association jand £15,000 to the Canadian Mount-

ed Police.

Miss Corden died during Christmas 1936, but probate on her will was held up by technical litigation to settle its validity.

She made no stipulation about the manner in whlelt the bequests are to be used, leaving the matter to the governing bodies of the two forces. Mics Carden left altogether £77,223.

WAR FRIENDS

To her dying day she never forgot | two friends she made during the war when she drove a horse mativan in the City, and beside the legacies to the firemen and mounties she left:

"AB my

chattels personal equally between Ethel Grace Southey, of Langley, Bucks, and Kathleen Jennings, with whom 1 was a mallyan driver, and £7,500 to each of them, or £15,000 to the survivor."

Miss Carden was 40 years old when she died. Her brother, Sle John Craven Carden, the Army tank de signer and aero-engine expert, was killed in a Belgian air Iner crash at Tatsfeld, Surrey, in 1935.
