Arthur Kinmond Bell [SEP] cause of death
Death.
Arthur Kinmond Bell died unexpectedly of illness on 26 April 1942. His will, though, proved him to be as generous in death as he was in life, gifting to 3 senior employees of Arthur Bell and Sons the sum of £5000, to all staff with 10 years experience in the company, £500, and to his gardeners, chauffeurs, and servants in his employ for 10 years or more, £200, all significant amounts for those who benefitted.
At the time of his
death Bell was living in Kincarrathie House, Perth, with his wife. Camilla later donated the house to the Kincarrathie Trust, who now run the house as a retirement home.
