Description

In the third place I direct that the remainder of the revenue of the trust estate and after the deaths of the respective liferentrices hereinbefore provided for, the portions of revenue payable to them during their respective lives shall be divided by the trustees half yearly among deserving indigent widows and spinsters resident in the City or County of Aberdeen who have belonged to the middle class of society and are at the time of admission to this Fund in straitened circumstances. The foregoing direction however is subject to this proviso that if at the time of any half yearly distribution it shall appear to the trustees that all the deserving applicants can be benefited by them to a reasonable and sufficient extent without disbursement of the whole revenue then available the trustees may reserve the surplus revenue for distribution at a later time when in their opinion it can be usefully applied.
