In 1658 Thomas Sams left a rent charge of £5 a year charged upon property in Church Lane and Holland Street, to be distributed among the poor of Kensington by the Vicar, Churchwardens, and Overseers, and this has ever since been regularly paid and distributed. I see that in March in the year 1890 it produced the sum of £4 16_s._ 10_d._, so this is another instance of a standstill property. In 1805 Mary Carnaby left £40 for the use of the poor, and in 1707 the parish officers with £80, £30 of which was out of Mary Carnaby’s £40, and the remaining £50 was a gift by Catherine Dickens in 1702, for the specific purpose of education (as to which I shall have something to say presently) purchased the freehold of the “Goat” public house in the High Street in trust as to three-eighths of the rent to be distributed among the poor. The “Goat” public house still remains, and three-eighths of the rent now amounts to £54 12_s._ 1_d._, which is another instance of how profitable early investments of land in the parish have proved. In 1794 James Mackintosh, by will, directed his wife to transfer £100 4 per cent. annuities to the Vicar and Churchwardens of the parish, for them “to apply the dividends thereof every Christmas in the purchase of coals, or bread, or both, for the relief of ten poor families of the parish who did not receive alms, as they from time to time may think most deserving.” This stock was duly transferred, and now consists of £105 consols, the dividend on which is £3 18_s._ 8_d._ In 1798 Thomas Reeves, by will, gave to the Vicar, Churchwardens and Overseers £100 5 per cent. bank annuities, to apply the dividends thereof “unto and for the use of, and benefit of, the poor and indigent people, parishioners of Kensington, yearly for ever.” This bequest now consists of £110 7_s._ 6_d._ consols, the annual dividend upon which amounts to £4 2_s._ In 1832 Elizabeth Ramsden left £500 reduced 3 per cent. stock, the dividend on which was to be applied in keeping in order a tomb and tablets in the parish churchyard and church, and the balance to be applied for the benefit of the poor of the parish. In 1837 Mary Barnard made a gift on similar conditions, which is now represented by £110 7_s._ consols producing an annual dividend of £2 14_s._ 8_d._ The application of all the above gifts is regulated by the order of the Court of Chancery, dated 23rd December, 1853, to which I referred just now when dealing with the Campden bequests, and which as regards those was (as it appears to me) fortunately abrogated by the decree of the Court of Appeal on the 27th May, 1881, putting those charities upon their present admirable basis. According to this decree of 1853, the income from the gifts I have just been detailing has to be divided into eighty-eight parts as follows:—
