The University Library will receive $15,000 from the estate of the late Alice Longfellow according to the terms of her will which was filed in the Middlesex Probate Court yesterday. This sum which was one of many public bequests is to constitute a perpetual fund in honor of her father who held a professorship in modern languages in the University. The gift stipulates that this fund is to be known as the Henry Wads worth Longfellow Fund, the income of which is to be used in the purchase of library books in foreign languages to aid in the studies of the belles letters. Since the will is but filed for probate, the library authorities have received no official notification of the bequest, and in view of that fact declined to issue any statement concerning it.
