Mr. Eugene O'Neill
Hotel Shelton
91 Bay State Road
Boston 15, Massachusetts

Dear Mr. O'Neill:

I have received your letter of May 24. I enclose here-
with a copy of your new will drawn in accordance with your instruc-
tions. The omission of the legacy to your son Eugene, Jr., who
has since died, also required the omission of Article VI of your
June 28, 1948 will which provided for the equitable apportionment
of taxes among the legatees. Since Mrs. O'Neill is the sole lega-
tee under this will, no such provision is necessary. In accordance
with your instructions, there is no reference in this will to the
Bermuda property.

If there are no changes or corrections to be made, I
shall be glad to come up to your hotel on Monday at any time which
is convenient for you to supervise the execution of the original of
this will. Please let me know at what time you wish to see me.

Enc.
