§ Mr. SOARESA scheme for the administration of the share of the Carter Charities, belonging to the parish of Filkins, will be made as soon as it has been possible to obtain the final accounts of the residuary estate of the founder and to ascertain therefrom the amount available for that parish. The delay that has occurred has been due to the difficulty of obtaining these accounts. The Commissioners are pressing for them to be completed.
