S.F. Cal

Since executing my Will dated dated the 31st day of May 1899 kind Providence has brought about more favorable condition in the affairs of my estate which enables me to will more liberally to my legal heirs and to outside charities which are dear to my heart.

I feel justified in making the changes in making the following changes in regard in regard to my gifts to the Legatees, and will add gifts to charities ever dear to my heart.

As I have no debts, that can not be liquidated immediately by means provided for that purpose, I desire that all the Legatees named herein shall receive their legacies as soon as the laws of our State of California will allow as it is my earnest desire there should be no unnecessary delay.

Provisions have also been made to pay the Legatees as soon as permitted by law. Bonds accounting
