It is understood at the Office that by the will of the late Erwin Conant, who died at Worcester on Sunday, Harvard is made the residuary legatee of his estate. Mr. Conant was one of the oldest alumni of the college in this State; he graduated in 1829, in the same class with Dr. O. W. Holmes and Professor Benjamin Peirce, father of Professor B. O. Peirce. He was one of the oldest members of the Worcester bar, and was universally honored and esteemed by all who knew him. It is not known now what the amount of his estate is, or what the other provisions of the will are, so nothing is known of the amount which the college will receive. It is not known either whether the money is given for a stipulated purpose or to the general fund without restrictions.
