Sir H. Wigram's Will.
Many Personal Bequests Made. r jPHE ESTATE of the late Sir Henry Wigram amounted at the time of his death to £190,000, and will be sworn at that figure. Sir Henry during his lifetime made many gifts for public purposes, aggregating more than £50,000, and his will therefore .made provision for few public bequests. He bequeathed the sum of £SOO to the Nurse Maude District Nursing Association, and the sum of £IOO to the Royal Life Saving Society, to be used for such special purposes as the committee of the Head Centre may think fit. The personal bequests, to relatives, friends, business associates and personal attendants, are exceedingly numerous. A large proportion of the estate will be absorbed by death duties.
