Phosphate Co., Ltd., are to form a separate trust to be invested until the property accumulates to the value of 25,000l. or 30,000l., when the trustees are to pay the sum ever to the Association for the better Endowment of the University of Edinburgh, or to such authorities in connection with the University of Edinburgh as the trustees shall deem expedient, for the purpose of founding a professorship of bacteriology in the University and the equipment of a classroom and laboratory for the teaching of the same, and for conducting original investigation in that subject.
