Scope and content
Administration of the goods and chattels, with a copy of the last will and testament annexed of the Hon Charles Daly, a Major in the 89th Regiment of Foot. Charles Daly’s will is in the form of a letter from the ‘camp before Sebastopol’ in the Crimea, dated 28 Dec 1854. Charles was very ill from ‘an attack of diarrhoea’ [he died the next day] and an associate, Arundel Hill, wrote the letter to Charles’ brother Denis Lord Dunsandle. Charles left ‘everything I have’ to be equally divided between his brothers and sisters. Administration was granted to Lord Dunsandle in the Court of Prerogative. Includes sworn affidavit of Lord Dunsandle to the Court, dated 12 Apr 1855. Extracted by B and T Worthington, 15 South Frederick St, proctors.
