Ever since he was & child his heart responded to every appeal Trom those who were in need, and he gave to his utmost ability of giving. “And 80 his mother and I, rather than to build a_ costly menument, decided to set aside $1,000,000 for this foundation.

Refuses To Reveal Names Btate’s Attorney Alcorn declined to reveal the names of the persone for'whom Watkins carried secret ac- counts and -Mr. Egan said he did not know who they are.
