He died in Nice at the age of 53 and left various legacies in the village, including £500 in Government Stocks for a school in the village. This note is concerned with the bequest of £200 for the support of 6 ages persons - continued on KL014a. Will dated 1849. The value of Government Stocks dwindled and produced a very small income. The Charity was wound up by agreement with the Charity Commissioners in 2002.
