a found consists of $4,000 in bonds
5000 in notes and chattels, and $500
cash in two different banks, which
brings the total up to $27,500.
Washburn college was placed in
charge of the entire estate, treasurer
James S. Griffin being made executor
designated in the will. A provision of
the will alloting $40 a month to Ros-
eta Smith, a sister, of Toledo, o., will
be carried out by the executor.
The will was made February IL,
1901 and witnessed by John Guthrie
and A. K. Rodgers. That it was
drawn in favor of the college Mr..
Greenwood attributes largely to the
influence of Mr.. Guthrie, Harvey
Rice, and ]. r. Mulvane, all close
friends of Mr.. Moore, who knew he
was without relatives.
Although many hoped to see the
gift placed on the general endowment
fund to secure other donations from
Andrew Carnegie and other sources,
Mr.. Greenwood said today, There is
no disappointment among the trus-
tees. Those connected with the col
lege never knew what the provisions
were, nor did they exert an influence
upon Mr.. Moore in behalf of the col
lege. The decision was Influenced, I
believe. by those I spoke of a mo-
ment ago.
The John w. Moore fund will take
front rank in similar benefits OF its
kind. Others are the Dilley fund OF
