All together his individual donations amounted to 

 more than $36,000, and through his Will he manifested 

 his faith in the future of the Museum by a bequest of 

 $100,000, which will supplement Mrs. Juilliard's gener- 

 ous legacy of $50,000. 



The Trustees will greatly miss his genial presence 

 and will endeavor to keep alive his memory and influ- 

 ence by continuing the wise and patriotic administration 

 of his gifts and legacies to the Museum for the public 

 welfare.
