GIVES LIBRARY SITE AND FUND T0 GHURCH (Continned from First Page) Memorial fund and be paid semi- annually to the Corgregational church, of which Mr. Mastin and his wife, who was ar Stanley before her marriage, were both mambers, By a codicil dated January 7, 1927, he operation of the above provi- sion is suspended for thitee and a half years. On that date Mr. Mastin contracted with George Vuille for Mr. Vuille and his family to occupy the property and-to board and care for Mr. Mastin for three years. In the event of Mr. Mastin's death within that period, the Vuilles were to retain possession for the full per- iod and a further six months, so that the town cannot take over the prop- erty until July, 1930, The remainder of the estate is left in trust to the Plainville Trust Co. to be administered as directed. It is to be divided into two equal parts the Stanley-Mastin memorial fund and the Stanley Mastin memorial li- brary fund. The income from the former is to go to the Congregation- al church and that from the latter 18 to be expended for the purchase of books or works of art suitable for the Plainville public library. The numerous heirlooms with which Mr. Mastin's house was fur- nished are left to his nephews, Wil- lard D, Stanley of Monroe and Bridgeport and Brayton P. Stanley of Bridgeport, and to his niece, Olga (Mrs. W. D.) Stanley. The rest of the furniture, together with the gladiolus plants, bulbs and tools, have been deeded to the Vuilles. A brother, Hershall D. Mastin of Ann Arbor, Mich,, is left without a ~ bequest, “not because of any lack of affection or regard but because he already has enough property.” The Plainville Trust Co. is named executor of the estate. Selectman Kimmel stated today that he believed the town would ac- cept the offer of the property if the will provided means ofg maintaining it. Otherwise it would probably be necessary to pass up the chance for 2 library site, since the revenue from the library at present is very small and the town has to make ap- propriations for the upkeep of the rooms in the Byington block. A separate building would be more costly to maintain and might be be- yond the town's means if means of support were not provided, he said.
