l Dated 6th of July, 1870

Will of Sir Theodore Felding

l
To my noble cousin, Lord Anthony Stewart, is left all but the
compensational holdings mentioned forthwith. His inheritance therefore
includes Linden Grange itself, the grounds, and all other financial
investments in connection with my estate.
As the estate has not been appraised in several years, an immediate
financial estimation of the grounds and house is recommended.

To faithful Thomas, I leave his trusted garden tools, including his

excellent collection of spades. May he use them well and as thoroughly
as he has previously done. I also give him leave to retrieve and retain his
personal belongings located in or around the grounds.
Finally, to Mrs. Lions, I provide for after an interesting manner.
Due to a strange clause in the law, she cannot be provided for during my
lifetime; after my decease, however, she may receive £150 per annum as
long as she maintains her employment at Linden Grange.

Dear Sir, 7th July, 1870

We wish to inform you that the

living set aside for your son, Robert
Johnson Felding, has recently become
vacant.

Though the question of his parentage

was settled by Dr. Errol’s affidavit,
there may be some few details to
arrange in order to legally guarantee
Robert Johnson’s inheritance.

Please respond with specific

instructions.

Yours, etc.
