Jewish charitable organizations will receive five-eighths of the residuary estate of the late Jacob Golland, who died April 6, under the terms of the will filed for probate at Surrogate’s Court yesterday afternoon. According to the formal estimate, Mr. Golland left “more than $11,000.”
The will, dated October 22, 1931, bequeathed $1,000 to the New York lodge for Elks No. 1, $5,000 to a sister-in-law, Mrs. Lillian Golland, and leaves the residue in trust for the benefit of the deceased’s brother, Israel Golland. On his death, the will provides that the trust shall continue for the benefit of Isaac Golland Jr., another brother, and Annie Golland, a sister.
On the death of each, the principal of the trust is to be divided as follows: one-half to the Federation for the Support of Jewish Philanthropic Societies; one-eighth to the New York Guild for Jewish Blind; and one-eighth to whatever Catholic and Protestant institutions for the blind may be selected by the executors, the Fifth Avenue Bank and Frederick Falzberg. The remaining one-fourth will go to Mrs. Lillian Golland.
