POOR PITTANCE
SEVEN HUNDRED A YEAR,
LORD STRATHSPEY AGGRIEVED.
(Received 11.30 a.m.) LONDON, July 7. Interviewed, Lord Strathspey said he was unable to understand why the Seafield estates of 400,000 acres went to the niece instead of to him. He declares that the trustees will not respond to appeals for assistance and adds: "It is strange that they adopt this attitude. Most people agree that it would be only just to allow me at lettst portion of the estates. They are content that I should • live . on a mere pittance of £700 a year. If they would only find me some suitable occupation like a directorship I would be only too happy, but they have never given me any assistance, in such a direction."— Sun. ''
