Two hundred thousand dollars was bequeathed to Harvard University by Ogden Mills '78, whose will was filed for probate last Tuesday in Duchess County, New York. The gift was among a number of bequests to charitable and educational institutions which totalled $2,250,000. Half of the gift to Harvard is to be added to the Endowment Fund, while $100,000 is given in a codicil without designating a specific purpose.
Ogden Mills, capitalist and philanthropist, died of pneumonia on January 29 at the age of 72. He was the director of many organizations and was a consistent benefactor of the Home for Incurables in New York City, the Mills Memorial Hospital, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Several years ago he contributed $20,000 to the Harvard War Memorial Church, Campaign.
