These donations do not include those that have been mentioned in the late merchant's will. Those will be disbursed as soon as the will is probated and the legal aspects cleared up. The largest single donation of $2,000 was to the Jewish Old Peoples Home, of which Mr. Phillipson was the first treasurer.
