The will (dated July 17, 1879), with seven codocils, of Berthe Victurnienne de Rochechouart de Mortemart, Princesse de Beauvau, late of No. 276, Boulevard St. Germain, Paris, who died on Jan. 26 last, was proved in London, on the 13th ult., by Hélene Marie Antoinette Victurnienne de Beauvau, Marquise de Montboissier, the personal estate within the jurisdiction of the, English Court exceeding £35,000. The legatees under the testatrix's testamentary disposition are her daughters, the Marquise de Montboissier and Madame Renée, her granddaughters, goddaughters, and others. The testatrix expresses her wish to be buried at Neauphile without invitations or ceremony, low mass (twenty-four), twenty-four wax tapers, and no trappings; but should she die at Paris, she wishes to be buried without trappings, with great simplicity in place of funeral pomp, and the amount which a moderate ceremony suitable to her social position would cost is to be given to the poor.
