ENDOWMENT FUND FOR TAYLOR-TALBOT COUNTY GIRLS
Because she was attentive and kind to him during an illness in 1916, Miss 
Lillian Alexander, a trained nurse, was made the beneficiary of a $2000 
bequest in the will of Mr. Charles D. Moore, which was filed Tuesday for 
probate in the ordinary's office.  Mr. Moore, a well known Atlantian who died 
recently, was a patient in a local hospital at the time Miss Alexander nursed 
him.

The instrument also provides that $300 a year for the next three years be paid 
to the deacons of Moore's chapel for upkeep of the church property.

Minor bequests to relatives were made by Mr. Moore and the remainder of the 
estate was placed in trust with the Fulton National Bank for not more than 
twenty-five years for investment in government, state and city bonds.  It is 
provided that the income from these investments be given to his relatives and 
that any time a beneficiary dies that income shall go to the State College for 
Women at Milledgeville, where it shall be loaned at 5 per cent to worthy girls 
from Talbot and Taylor counties, who wish to continue their education in the 
state school.

After twenty-five years, it is provided, the entire trust fund shall be given 
to the college and be known as the Charles D. Moore endowment fund for the use 
in the education of girls from Talbot and Taylor counties.

Lemuel V. Moore, of Buena Vista, Ga., Wade H. Davis and the Fulton National 
Bank were named executors.  The will was drafted January 23, 1930.
