Williamson’s unsigned will halts grand school plan
The Philadelphia magnate William Williamson fails to sign his will, jeopardizing a $7,000,000 to $15,000,000 scheme for a free mechanical trades school and broad charitable endowments. Lawyers warn charitable bequests may lapse without proper signing and timing under Pennsylvania law. Williamson, born 1906 in Bucks county, built a fortune from a dry goods business and private reclusiveness, with past gifts to several institutions and charities.
