Jewish charities are bequeathed $15,000 under the will of Isidore S. Korn, who died here on December 27. The will was filed for probate yesterday in Surrogate’s Court. The estate is valued formally at “more than $20,000.”
The testament, which is dated May 5, 1932, leaves $10,000 to the Hebrew Orphan Asylum to be applied in assisting mentally backward children, and $2,500 each to the Hebrew Immigrant Aid and Shelter Society and the Beth Abraham Home for Incurables.
The remainder of the estate goes to the family.
