FARM PROCEEDS
AID The NEEDY
Wealthy Kent COuntian Left
Valuable Property to
Help the Poor

Some residents of Kent county are
wondering why Chancellor Nicholson
appointed a Sussex county man as
trustee of a fund for the aid OF the
poor of Kent county. The fund is
known as the Potter estate.
A number of years ago Benjamin
Potter wealthy resident Of near Mil
ford. died, leaving in Kent county ten
or dozen good farms, which were to
be held in trust forever by the county,
for the benefit of the poor OF Kent
county outside OF the poorhouse." For
some time there was a question as to
what was really meant by the will.
The matter was placed in the hands
of the chancellor of the State. who de-
cided that the proper method of caring
for the property would be TO appoint a
trustee who should conduct the farms
to the best advantage and turn the
profits over TO the trustees of the poor
for Kent county, who should expend
the money for what is known as out
side relief"
The trustee holds Office for life and
there have been several since the cham
cellor first took charge of the matter
The late John w. Causey, Of Milford
was a trustee. About year ago he
removed from Kent to Sussex county
but continued to hold the place until he
died. When new trustee was APP
pointed 1t was generally supposed thai
a Kent county man would be named fol
the place but the chancellor named j
/ Stanley short. a resident OF SUSSEX
county As the farms are wholly with
, in Kent county, and are the property
OF Kent county, It is felt by many tha
a Kent county man should have beer
named Tor trustee
The position Of trustee pays onil
about $500 a year, and the man who
holds the position is compelled to main
tain a horse and carriage in order t'
visit the various farms; thus It is no
I the money involved which makes th'
Kent county people anxious TO hold th'
place. At the present time the farmi
are in good condition. and some Of then
are among the most valuable in tn
county. It is claimed that all OF thu
land left under the Potter will is nov
worth somewhere between $4,000 AM
$4,000 and is constantly increasing II
value.
