PERFECT NURSE’S REWARD
PATIENT LEAVES £4OOO LEEDS, Eng., Jan. 20. Mr. Ernest Inchbold, a retired invalid who was formerly a Leeds business man, could no longer play his accustomed game of golf, but he could still appreciate the birds and flowers of the countryside. In his last years ho could not go out alone, but a pleasant-faced nurse accompanied him on his short rambles. Mr. Inchbold died recently. Yesterday the pleasant-faced nurse had some reward for her years of devotion.
In Mr. Inchbold’s will appeared: £4OOO to my nurse, Agnes C. Beveridge.”
A friend when told of her good fortune said: “Miss Beveridge was the perfect nurse. Now she is on another nursing job.
“I think the amount she was left will be a surprise for her, because, though Mr. Inchbold mentioned that lie would leave her something, £4OOO is a big sum.
“But she deserved it. She never spared herself.”
