The ROMANCE OF A TOWBsToyE-It is not
often that the outs and ins of our everyday
world present such grand work for the nov
elist as that disclosed before the Court of Ses-
sions last week, in case in some degree con-
nected with the locality. The Stow estates
with the personal property left by the late Miss
INNS, OF Stow, amount to the enormous value
OF two millions, and form the subject of litiga-
ton at the present moment 1t appears that
the true heir must trace his descent from q GER
tain Thomas Simpson, who married m Innes
and resided at Darrahill in the parish of Bel
heivie. This is all the parties claim. But the
pnrSuers have recently learnt that there was in
the churchyard Of Belhelvie a tombstone re-
cording the death of one Thomas Simpson,
sometime residing at Darrahill. and his wife
Jean Adams, but it was removed about twenty
years ago and hid somewhere in the church.

There was thus, according to their statement,
two contemporary Thomas Simpsons in Darra-
hill, and the tombstone is matter of so much
Importance, and the mutual suspicious of the
litigants so great, that both parties have had
three persons watching the churchyard day
and night, for months past, and not much won

treasure. Who hid it is not alleged, or why it
was hidden; nor are we informed on what
