 Garden shall be open to visitors two Sundays in each year, 

 viz, the first Sundays in June, and the first Sunday in Sep- 

 tember, from Two P M to sunset.

 soon afer my decease as it can be done, to turn over to the

 herein first described, the house, buildings and improve- 

 ments thereon, and as there will be found an inventory of 

 the plants connected with and embraced in said Botanical 

 garden and grounds, or upon the tract aforesaid; and as the 

 plants are removed at times from the plant houses into the 

 garden, it is sufficient for my executor or administrator to 

 inventory said plants for the purposes of my estate as the 

 plants, flowers and shrubs belonging to the Missouri Botan- 

 ical Garden as contained in inventory, and said Trustees 

 shall receipt to my executor or administrator in full of such 

 plants &c as contained in said inventory as the shrubs 

 plants & flowers of the Missouri Botanical Garden. 



36th — Also all the residue of my estate real and personal 

 or mixed, which I may leave, or be possessed of at the time 

 of my death, which shall not have been in this my will de- 

 vised, bequeathed and disposed of, I devise and bequeath to
