ELIZABETH WHITE FUND
Copy of Article 4 of the Will of George R. White
To the inhabitants of the town of Acton, Massachusetts, I give the sum of twenty-five thousand ($25,000) dollars, to be held as a permanent fund to be known as the Elizabeth White Fund, in memory of my mother; the income only to be expended in relieving- the necessities of the deserving poor or unfortunate, preferably widows and orphans, irrespective of citizenship, and particularly in those cases for which the town may not be liable, but may feel a moral obligation to care for; the same to be dispensed in gifts of cash, and it shall be the duty of the town to anticipate such necessity of aid and assistance by inquiry and investigation in advance of claims as far as possible, in order that sensitive and deserving people- may receive assistance, who might because of publicity refrain from making application for aid. I direct that the fund be invested in investments lawful for savings banks in Massachusetts, and that the income and expenditures under said fund, omitting names of benefi- ciaries, be published annually in the town reports, with a list of the securities in which said fund is invested and the market value of the same at date of publication. In case of loss of any part of the prin- cipal of said fund by bad investments or otherwise, the income shall be allowed to accumulate until such loss is made good. If said town of Acton declines to accept this gift on the conditions expressed, then it shall become a part of my residuary estate.
Voted, unanimously, that the town accept a legacy in Article 4 of the will of the late George R. White, to be known as the Elizabeth White fund, upon the trusts and conditions in said will set forth.
Voted, to choose three trustees, one for one year, one for two years, and one for three years, and annually hereafter one for three years. Chose : Waldo E. Whitcomb, trustee for one year; William H. Kingsley, trustee for two years; Warren H. Jones, trustee for three years.
A true copy. Attest :
HORACE F. TUTTLE, Town Clerk. Acton, Mass., March 12, 1923.
