quests TO Charity.
The will of Edward b. Leisenring,
who died on Dept. 20 at Hamburg,
Germany, while travelling in Europe,
was admitted to probate by Register
of Wills Shields, of Philadelphia
county, Monday, and letters testament
airy were granted upon the estate to
John S. Wentz, Edgar Twining, Nah
Ion S. Kemmerer and the Fidelity In
surance, Trust and Safe Deposit COM
pany.
The estate Is valued in the petition at
"over 100000" but the actual value is
expected to reach a far greater amount,
nearly 100000, says the Philadelphia
Press.
The will proper, which was executed
on Feb. 25, 1891, deyises a considerable
portion of the estate to charitable
institutions, but codicil dated Aug.
u, of the present year, changes the en-
tire disposition of the property. In
the codicil the testator' says that
Being about to go abroad, and hav
ing been married since writing my will
and testament, to Annie w. Wickham,
and having at this date daughter
nameh Mary w. Leisenring, before
any other bequest Is paid by the eX-
ecutors, | give to my wife, Annie w.
Leisenring, should she survive me, one
third of all my personal estate; pro-
vided that it shall amount to $5O0,000
and also the right to occupy my resi-
dence at Thirty-ninth and Locust
streets, Philadelphia"
To the daughter, Mary W. Leisen"
ring, on her arrival at the of q years,
and to any other child that may be born
and may reach the age of 25 years, is
given jointly another third of the es-
tate, provided it shall amount to $780,
900.
In making these bequests the testator
explains that ii is his idea and purpose
that my wife and child shall have at
least one million of dollars, provided
my estate shall yield that amount"
The residue of the estate Is to amount
to one-third of the property, and in the
event of the estate yielding the amount
mentioned, then the provisions of the
will proper are to become operative.
Included in the bequests, in addition to
those of private nature, are the fol-
lowing public requests:
To St. Luke's hospital, of South Beth
lehem, $4,000, the same to be used to
endow one or more free beds, to be
