That MilliOn-hgain I!

Our readers will recollecl seeing state
ment in our paper to the effect that Rev
SAMUEL CLAwsoN was not the heir to thai
Million of dollars about which so much
has been said in the papers, but that some
one else ras the heir. We made this state
ment on the authority Of one ofour excban'
ees. We are authorised to publish the fol-
lowing as the true statement of the case:
There was originally the sum Of thir,y.slS
millions OF dollats, the estate Of the Earl
of Lancaster, in England, and upon the
death Of the Earl and hi, brother, a dispute
arose between the House Of York and the
House Of Lancaster, INSTITUTED by the for.
mer, because Of an intermarriage between
the two houses the House Of York sueing
for the heirship. The suit was protracted
from the lower to the higher Courts, from
fifty to hundred years, and Vas finally de-
cided al the Exchequer, lthe Queens bench)
in favor of the House Of Lancaster. Alter
this decision, advertisements were scatter
ed abroad over the world for the heirs OF
the Lancaster estate, and the mother of
Mrs. Clawson, wife Of Rev. Samuel Claw.
son, is one of the heirs. Attorneys are EN-.
ployed by the heirs to secure their interests,
and j, is supposed that the whole affair will
be settled up during this winter, when the
heirs will receive their portions. The above
sum Of lhir,y.six millions has been at inter.
est for more than sixty years, which inter
es. will pay the costs of law, aud leave the
original sum clear tal (!
Editors who have published the former
Statements, are requested to publish this,
as favor due 10 the heirs.--Pruntyto.rn
