Since executing former Wills, a kind Providence has brought about more favorable conditions in the affairs of the Estate left me by my beloved husband, and for this reason I have greatly enlarged my gifts to the Leland Stanford Junior University, and I now feel justified in enlarging, as I have done in this Will, my bequests to my relatives and friends and different charities, which have been ever dear to my heart.

All my wardrobe and wearing apparel, all household linen in my city and country homes, and all toilet articles of my own, my dear husband's and son's, Leland Stanford, Junior, I direct shall be distributed by my brother CHARLES GARDNER LATHROP, according to his best judgement, between himself and his daughter JENNIE STANFORD LATHROP.

The wardrobes of my dear son Leland Stanford, Junior, and of my beloved husband, I give to my brother CHARLES GARDNER LATHROP, knowing he will carry out my wishes in regard thereto, and I also give and bequeath to my said brother all such silver plate as is not mentioned as having already been given to the Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University, and by them to be placed in the Museum connected with said University.

I desire and again request of the Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University that they shall, as soon as possible, place and safely preserve in the Museum of the University all articles which I have given them from my homes mentioned, only excepting what is given to my brother Charles G.

The ivory, painted breastpin, surrounded with small brilliants, picture of my son, and one of the same of my mother, and another with large diamonds surrounding it of my husband, I desire shall be placed and carefully pr eserved in one of the cases in the memorial room of my husband in Stanford Museum Building.

No bonds shall be required of them, either upon qualification as Executors, or for the performance of any of the trusts of this Will, either as Executors or otherwise.

XXV.

It is my solemn wish and desire that my dear brother CHARLES G. LATHROP, who has been unsurpassed in his devotion and loyalty to me through my trials and sorrows during the past eight years, and devoted to all the interests left me by my dear husband, should be retained in the Board of Directors of the Pacific Improvement Company as long as my Estate retains any interest therein. I hereby request that the Board of Trustees of the University shall retain my brother CHARLES G. LATHROP as Treasurer of and Business Manager for the Board of Trustees, he to receive annually the salary of Ten Thousand ($10,000) Dollars each year, and I trust for my sake my dear brother will be willing to retain

9

the position and accept the compensation named.

XXVI. Of the large estate committed to the hands of my husband and myself, I have made what I consider the wisest and most just disposition, and the disposition most in accordance with cherished wishes long entertained by my husband and myself, and I shall greatly deplore any attempt to disturb it; and if any devisee or legatee under the above written Will, or any person who, if I died intestate, would be entitled to any part of my estate, should either directly or indirectly attempt to oppose or set aside the probate of this Will, or to impair, invlaidate or set aside its provisions, or to set aside or avoid, or to have declared void, null or ineffectual any transfer or grant made or attempted to be made by my husband or myself to said Trustees of said University, then and in that case, I give and bequeath to such person or persons the sum of One Hundred ($100) Dollars, and no more, in lieu of any other share or interest under the Will or in my estate; and I expressly declare and provide that to take any part directly or indirectly in such an attempt shall be held and conclusively deemed to be an election by the person or persons doing so to take the said One Hundred ($100) Dollars, and no more, in lieu of all interest in my estate, and all the rest of the interest that would otherwise have gone to such person or persons by devise or inheritance shall pass under the residuary clause of the said Will.
