thereon in the estate Of the late Henry j. Raymond

tate.
1t Is now reported upon reliable authority that
although Mr.. Raymond died without having left O
Will in existence, Will was actually executed by
him few years since, and was by him revoked SUBJ
sequently by an instrument In writing These facts
however, have only come to light since the issuance
Of the letters Of administration and as yet nothing
