The Addison Brown Fund 
The will of Judge Addison Brown, who was for many 
years President of the Garden, contains the following pro- 
visions: 
Out of the residue of my estate (excluding the property 
referred to in the Eleventh Article), after satisfying the foregoing 
bequests and charges, I give and bequeath as follows: 
(3) To the New York Botanical Garden, I give two hundred 
shares of the preferred stock of the United States Steel Corpora- 
tion, to be known as the Addison Brown Fund, the income and 
accumulations from which shall be applied to the founding and 
publication, as soon as practicable, and to the maintenance 
(aided by subscriptions therefor), of a high-class magazine bearing 
my name, devoted exclusively to the illustration by colored 
plates of the plants of the United States and its territorial 
possessions, and of other plants flowering in said Garden or its 
conservatories; with suitable descriptions in popular language, 
& any desirable notes & synonomy, and a brief statement of the 
known properties & uses of the plants illustrated. The Garden 
Managers may, from time to time, change the investment of said 
fund, as necessary, applying the income to said uses. 
This bequest was duly received by the Garden and the 
stock subsequently sold, realizing $20,766.50. The Sci- 
entific Directors have been examining samples of reproduc- 
tions of paintings of American plants, and the Board of 
Managers have authorized the publication of a sample 
number of the magazine.
