The Charity Commissioners have made a scheme for the
administration of this Charity, which provides for the endowment
of the Charity to be divided into two parts, one part being applied
for the purposes of education and the other for pensions. The
former is to be administered as a separate foundation under the title
of St. Peter's Hammersmith Schools Foundation, and pending the
establishment by the Board of Education of a scheme for the
administration thereof, will be in accordance with the existing trust
affecting the same, and be administered by the Trustees of the
original Charity. The other part of the Charity will be administered
and managed by the Trustees of the Hammersmith Branch of the
Charities of Doctor Edwards and Bishop King, under the title of
the " Betts' Pension Charitv." Alter making provision for the
management of the property, etc., the scheme provides for the
yearly income of this part of the Charity being applied for the
benefit of pensioners who are to be widows or spinsters of good
character, in reduced circumstances, of not less than 60 years of age
and in receipt of an annual income of not less than £20 independently
of the allowance under the scheme, and who shall have
