At the time when the body of Mr. Rosenshine was recovered there was found in his clothing $435 according to the affidavits of the executors, and his relatives, who went to Halifax, gave the crew of the Mackay-Bennett $100 to be divided among the men. This was deducted from the estate. In accord with the provisions of the will the executors also built a mausoleum costing $7,500.
