Memorandum. In August 1898 I paid off the six hundred pounds owing to the Settlement Trustees on Mortgage of Trouts Farm and bought from them the portion of that farm which belonged to them. With the balance there was purchased in the xxx of the Trustees (Major F.C. Heath and Mr C.E. Heath) six hundred and forty pounds of Great Western Ordinary Stock and three hundred pounds of London and North Western Ordinary Stock. In the autumn of  1904 a legacy of Two hundred pounds was left to the late Lady Heath and in accordance with a clause in the Settlement it was claimed by the Trustees and invested in Two hundred pounds First Preference London Chatham and Dover Railway Stock. In January 1905 I discovered there was some uncertainty as to the distribution of the Six thousand pounds appointed to Mr C.E. Heath on May 1st 1880 and I gave to the Trustees Seven hundred pounds of Great Western Ordinary Stock being the equivalent of One thousand pounds to balance the mistakes of mistake there had been. The investments now held by the Trustees are as follows

£740 Metropolitan Railway Stock

£1,184 London Brighton and South Coast Railway Stock

£3,324 London Chatham and Dover First Preference Stock

£370 Metropolitan Surplus Land Stock

£1,340 Great Western Railway Stock

£300 London and North Western Ordinary Stock.

 

Dated this twenty second day of February One thousand nine hundred and five.
