Matimtir Procrastination Sometimes Fatal In the month of November a citizen of Richmond dietl, and the heirs called at our office to read the will? being confident it was in our vault. It is true the party had intended to make one, ap pointirig this Company Executor and Trustee, and had informed several close friends to this effect. Writing the will was, however, delayed?the result being that the wishes of this party will not be carried out as he desired. Wc recite the clrcumstance, because there are at present many prudent men and women whose INTEN TIONS are similar to.those above set forth. The moral of all this is: The important matter of executing your wlll should not be delayed. Our book, icllillg how to draw a will, sent frec. Virginia Trust Company RICHMOND, VA.
