Men may die without incurring the pity of their fellows, still sharers in great business enterprises from which their capital cannot or has not been withdrawn, and which is primarily left at death for public uses; yet the day is not far off when the man who dies leaving behind him millions of available wealth, which was free for him to administer during life, will pass away "unwept, un honored, and unsung," no matter to what uses he leaves the dross which The public verdict on such people will be

"The man who dies thus rich dies disgraced."
