Holland writes of the sources of Whitlaw Reid's fortune

New York January 15 reports estimate the late Whitlaw Reid’s estate at around 20 million dollars, though insiders warn the figure likely exaggerates. The article traces wealth to Tribune control, real estate, and a pioneering typesetting apparatus, noting the value of the Tribune building and other properties near White Plains and the Adirondacks. It details Reid’s cautious investments, says he kept Mrs. Reid’s inheritance separate, and notes his historic political and literary influence including works on Lincoln and Jefferson.
