The Hospital for Epilepsy and Paralysis, Maida Vale, London, recently received a mild shock in the form of a notice from Somerset Houso that a North London merchant had died leaving his residuary estate to the hospital. Unfortunately tho value of the ostatc is rather less than certain legacies and oxponses, so the hospital has been wondering where it stands. Mr 11. W. Burleigh, the secretary and gdncral superintendent of tho hospital, said: One generally gets a thrill on opening a Somerset House lotter of this kind. This is the first occasion on which the thrill became a shock, because it rather looked at first sight as if the hospital might owe tho estate something.
