TRUST FUND DISTRIBUTION,
Supreme Court Decision in Case of A. F,
Dana VS.. S. D. Smith.

Judge Barker in the supreme judi
cial court, has handed down decision
in the case of Alfred F. Dana ct al. VS..
Samuel D. Smith, trustee under the
will of the late Alfred Smith Of Hart
ford, Conn, ordering the defendant as
trustee to sell and transfer enough of
the shares of the Holyoke Water Power
Company in his hands to realize 100000,
and to distribute this sum in their pro-
portions as provided for in the will of
the testator, as follows, several Worces-
ter people being interested:
Mary B. Dana and Alfred F. Dana of
Santa Rosa, Cal, William B. Dana of
Boston, Charles B. Dana of Providence,
Harold B. Dana, Elizabeth M. Dana,
Frank Dana, Ruth Dana and Isaac C.
B. Dana of this city.
The trust fund was made up in part
of 300 shares of stock in this water
power company. In 1898 the company
having voted to increase it's capital
stock to $1,200,000, which was done, the
directors afterwards voted that in Octo-
ber of that year a dividend Of 800 per
share be paid to the stockholders, and
titled to 100000, for which he purchased
300 shares of the increased stock.
The question then came up whether
this dividend was an addition to the
capital Of the Smith trust fund, or in
come, in which latter case the bene-
ficiaries were entitled to have it distrib-
uted among themselves.
That was the question in this case.
