RECENT WILLS AND BEQUESTS.

The will of James Lindsay Barclay, Esq., of 95,
Farringdon-street, and of Dulwich-common, was
proved in the London Court on the 19th of this
month by the executors, Mrs. Barclay, the relict,
and Mr. James Barclay Hennell, the nephew. The
personal property was sworn under £35,000. Mr.
Barclay, whose death was somewhat premature,
being only 52 years of age at the period of his
decease, which occurred on the 4th of this month
at his residence at Dulwich, made his will on the
25th of March, 1854, to which he added a codicil
on the 17th of April, 1856. The bequests are strictly
confined to the family, with the exception of a
legacy in favour of the executor. Mr. Barclay has
directed his realty to be sold, and the produce to
be added to his personal property ; the interest
arising therefrom he has left to his relict for her
life, to whom he also bequeaths his furniture, and
all other effects for her own use and disposal. Mr.
Barclay has left to each of his three daughters an
immediate legacy of £1,000; and on the decease of
his relict the whole of the property is to be divided
equally amongst them. The business which has
retained the name of " Barclay and Sons," Patent
Medicine Warehouse, has bean carried on for many
years in the same premises, originally " 95, Fleet-
market," and may be almost considered as one of
the longest established of that kind in the metro-
polis.
The will of Vincent Figgins, Esq., of Southgate
and of West Smithfield, has been proved in the
London Court of Probate by the executors—.
Mrs. Figgins, the relict, and Joseph M'Crea,
Esq., of Compton-terrace, Islington, surgeon—to
whom probate was granted on the 21st inst., the
personal property being sworn under £50,000. The
will bears date March 4, 1852, and a codicil
February 20, 1857. To his widow he has left a life
interest in the principal part of his property,
bequeathing to her an immediate legacy of £l,OOO,
and a sum of £5,000 to be paid to her within twelve
months from his decease. He has also bequeathed

to her the shares he held in the Stationers' Com-
pany, together with all his furniture, plate, and
other effects, carriages, &c. To his sister, Mary
Figgins, and his nephew, Daniel Figgins, he leaves
£3,000 each; and to his executor, Mr. M'Crea, a
legacy of £250, free of legacy duty. The residue,
on the decease of Mrs. Figgins, he directs to be
divided into six c,qual parts amongst his three
brothers and three sisters. Mr. Figgins died at
the early age of 54, at Nice, in France, on the 21st
of December last. He for many years represented
solely the old-established business, and latterly in
partnership, as Vincent and James Figgins, type-
founders and manufacturers of printing materials,
17 and 18, West-street, Smithfield.
