A LARGE ESTATE

MANY LEGACIES PERSONAL ATTENDANTS RECEIVE SUBSTANTIAL SUMS. DUNEDIN, April 27. Air. J. C. Marshall, who died on April 9, left a large estate which had gradually accumulated by the death from time to time of the other members of his family in England. Mr. Marshall came out from England to New Zealand with tho late Mr. E. B. Oargill (to whom he was related) in 1872, and, with the exception of a short visit to the home country in 1920, he spent the remainder of his life in Dunedin. The estate will probably be valued for the assessment of death duties at £170,000 or £lBO,OOO, but will be liable to a heavy deduction of not less than one-third for stamp duties, as most of the beneficiaries are strangers in blood to him within the meaning of the Death Duties Act. The principal individual legacies are the following: Miss Fanny Cargill j £lO,OOO, Sir John H. Hosking £6OOO/ Mr. George L. Cook £75,000, Airs. F. W. Petre and her family £6OOO, Miss Edith N.
