The late Dr. Caleb Fiske, formerly President of the Rhode Island Medical Society, with a munificence that does honor to his memory, bequeathed in his last will for the benefit of the Society, the sum of Two Thousand Dollars, directing the proceeds thereof to be applied to the payment of premiums for the Piize Dissertations, and for contingent expenses, as set forth in the following extract from his will: Item.—“ I give and bequeath to the President and two Vice-Presidents of the Medical Society of the State of Rhode Island, for the time being, and to their successors in office, the semi-annual dividends arising from forty shares of stock which I own in the Union Bank, in Providence, the amount thereof, two thousand dollars, in trust for the uses herein limited : Use the first,—nine-twelfths of said dividends shall constitute a fund to be applied in the manner following, to wit: The said trustees, or either two of them, shall select at every annual meeting of said Society, such subject or subjects for investigation as they may judge most conducive to the advancement of medical science, and give notice thereof in one of the newspapers published in Newport, and one published in Providence, for the term of six weeks, offering such premium or premiums as the annual product of said funds will justify, to lie awarded and paid out by said trustees for the best treatise on the subject proposed by them for investi- gation, to be communicated to said trustees one month previous to the next annual meeting of said Society. And in order that a laudable spirit of emulation may be excited and maintained, the trustees shall not only suitably reward the authors of the fortunate productions, but also pre- scribe such rules for receiving the communications and deciding on the merits of the several performances as will shield the unsuccessful competi- tor from obloquy or reproach. Use the second : two-twelfths of the profit or dividends of said stock are to remunerate said trustees for their services in the execut’on of the several trusts herein confided to them. Use the thiid : one-twelfth of the profits of said stock is to be appro- priated to printing and supplying each member of said Society with a copy of such treatise for which premiums have been awarded. It is 14 believed, however, that the copyright of the productions may be so dis- posed of by said trustees as not only to furnish the members of said Society with copies gratis, but also to make some addition to the aforesaid fund; ami it is also believed that said trustees, in consideration of advan- tages which said Society may derive fiom a discreet management of said fund, will frequently, if not uniformly, render their services gratuitously, whereby a further addition may be made to said fund. If these anticipa- tions should be realized in part or in whole, whatever sums remain unap- propriated shall be added to said fund for the uses afoiesaid. And my will further is, and I hereby ordain, that the aforesaid forty shares of stock, the nominal amount whereof is two thousand dollars, shall remain registered in my name in the books of said bank, but the dividends or profits arising therefrom shall be subject from time to time to the order of said trustees for the uses above limited ; but every older drawn on said bank shall express the uses to which the money is to be applied. Fur- thermore, the said trustees shall cause their proceedings in the premises to be recorded in a book, or books, from year to year, and deposited in the archives or cabinet of said Society for safe keeping, inserting therein the annual amount of said fund and the additions, if any, made thereto, the subject or subjects proposed for investigation, the amount of premiums offered, the names and places of abode of persons to whom premiums are awarded, with such other facts and remarks relative to the application of said dividends as they may judge expedient, and the proceedings, or such parts thereof as shall be audibly read before sail Society at their annual meeting, and also be subject to the inspection of any member of said Society, and also be free tor examination by ray heirs at law; provided, nevertheless, and 1 do hereby order, that if the said dividends or profits arising from the aforesaid stock, or any part thereof, should at any time hereafter be used for any other purposes than those before limited, or applied in any other manner than is above directed, or if said trustees, or either two of them for the time being, shall neglect or refuse to exe- cute the aforesaid trust in manner and form before specified, sickness, and other unavoidable accidents excepted, for the term of one year, then, in either of these cases, this bequest shall thenceforth cease and deter- mine, and said stock and the dividends arising therefrom shall thenceforth descend to, and vest in, my heirs at law. Provided, also, and Ido hereby ordain, that if, at any time hereafter, said Medical Society shall discontinue its anniversary meetings, authorized by its charter, or in case its members (fellows) exclusive of honorary members, should decline in number and at any time hereafter be reduced to twenty, then, and in either of those cases, this bequest shall thenceforth cease and determine, and said stock and the dividends or piofits arising therefrom shall descend to, and vest in, my heirs at law.” The foregoing bequest having increased in amount, by interest and otherwise, enables the Trustees to offer two premiums annually, of One Hundred Dollars each, for the best essays on the questions they propose.
