ing of a Professorship, either of comparative anatomy or of 
surgical anatomy, whichever of these Chairs the trustees shall 
consider to be most required in the interests of medical science, 
in the University of Edinburgh, “in memory of the late Dr. 
John Barclay and the late Professor John Goodchair,” the 
testatrix adding that she was “led to found this Professorship in 
memory of these gentlemen, in respect of the great regard that 
my late brother entertained for them, and that they, I believe, 
entertained for him.” While declaring that the period of accu¬ 
mulation shall not exceed twenty-one years from the date of her 
death, the testatrix provides that in the event of the £20,000 
being reached before the expiry of that period, her trustees shall 
have full power, after making the division, to continue to hold 
both or either £10,000 for twenty-one years, and until sucli an 
amount is accumulated as may be, in the opinion of her trustees, 
for the most advantageous promotion of the objects contemplated. 
In a codicil to her will the testatrix states that she iiad erected 
certain houses at the Kirkton, Burntisland, on the property be¬ 
longing to her brother’s trustees, and life-rented by her at a total 
cost of £800 ; but she had not then got any title to the ground 
on which the houses were built; and, in the event of her death 
before getting such title, and the same thus falling to her late 
brother’s trustees, the sum of £800 more shall be employed by 
her trustees in the furtherance of comparative anatomy and 
surgery than in the furtherance of veterinary science. Of the 
trustees under the will, Professor Turner, Professor Chiene, and 
Professor M’Kendrick (Glasgow) are declared by the testatrix 
to have been appointed “ in consequence of their special qualifica¬ 
tions to carry out ” her wishes “ in regard to the disposal of the 
residue” of her estate.— Scotsman , August 7, 1883.
