The image appears to be a scanned page from an old newspaper clipping service, dated August 29, 1941. The paper has a yellowed, aged appearance, suggesting it is from a historical document. It contains excerpts of two articles, both titled "Taylor Estate Left to Widow; Harvard Shares in Collections."
The first article discusses the will of Charles Henry Taylor, a retired publisher of the Boston Globe. It notes that Taylor bequeathed practically all his estate, including personal effects, to his widow, Marguerite Falck Taylor. The will also mentions that on her death, the estate would be divided into two shares, one to be given outright to his son, Charles Taylor, 3d, and the other to his daughter, Mrs. Doris T. Black.
The will provided that Harvard College would receive some of his collections, such as his marine logbooks and his collection of old blue Staffordshire ware. The article also mentions that the proceeds from the sale of his collection of ship portraits would be given to the Industrial School for Crippled and Deformed Children.
The second article provides additional details about the will and its contents. It states that the will of Charles Henry Taylor, former director and treasurer of the Boston Globe, was filed with Arthur W. Sullivan, the register of probate for Suffolk County. The will leaves virtually all his estate in trust for the benefit of his widow, Marguerite Falck Taylor. The other heirs at law are his son, Charles H. Taylor, Jr., and his daughter, Doris Taylor Black.
The will was dated May 14, 1936, and it also mentions that the will named Augustus P. Loring, Jr., of Beverly, and Adelbert E. Buffum of Cohasset, as executors and trustees. The will was filed with the Press Clipper Service in Boston, Massachusetts.
