A careless, wealthy man was
the late DR.. Vandeveer, of Som
erset county, N. j. An examina-
ton Of his personal effects has
brought to light money and valu-
able papers: amounting in all to
5000, strewn about with ap-
parently great carelessness-in
pockets and pocketbooks, in boxes,
in drawers, in holes and corners,
rolled up and chucked in and ly-
ing around loose. There were
bank notes amounting to several
thousands, gold and silver by the
hundreds, bonds of railroads, of
state, county, and townships, cor.
porations, United States bonds,
real estate mortgages, deeds, notes
for money loaned, &C., &c. Six
different wills were found, in ad-
dition to one under which claim
had already been made, and a
legal battle over the estate is to
begin Immediately.
