A Forgotten Legacy for the Armenian Church found in 1873

Extract from: The Friend of India Calcutta, India, Thursday, August 21, 1873; pg. 938; Issue 2006. Empire.


“A legacy of a Lakh and forty thousand rupees was left half a century ago to the Calcutta Armenian Church by an Armenian gentleman. The fact has only just been discovered from the records of the High Court.”

That would have been a LOT of money in 1873, how could it possibly have been forgotten from 1823 I wonder?
