The Harrisburg tsta.5ot says: The
will Of Thomas Mckee, Of -1ieghany,
whose death Was announced few days
ago. has been filed in the Registers
Office. Nettie Adelia Mckee, daugh
ter, aged about twenty years, who has
spent a portion of her time attending
school in This city, is made the sole
possessor Of her fathers immense
wealth, estimated III from Si,50d,091
to $2,0ao,o00 The viii, dated March
| 2, 1870, il yoluminous, having three o..
! four codicils appended.
The deceased owned about 297 acres
Of land above Harrisburg, extending
from the school house in Susqnehanna
township, at which elections are held,
embracing the driving park and Hof-
man woods. This property he inherit
ed from his father, John Mckee, who
lived on the estate nearly a century ago.
He was an Indian trader, and was agent
| under VIM. Penn to negotiate treaties
with the red men. The founder of
Pennsylvania had reserved about 1900
acres OF land above this city,and through
Mckees position, and the fact that he
was married to a woman in whose.yeius
Indian blood coursed, over four hun
bred acres We're transferred to him. -
Half of this property is now owned by
Hamilton Ahicks, D. w. Gross, and
others, having been sold to them by
Alexander Mckee, deceased, brother OF
Thomas Mckee, who has just died.
The elder Mckee also obtained many
other possessions by virtue of his rela
tons with William Penn and the In
| dams, among them hundreds Of acres
of land in Allegheny county, to which
place he removed between the years
1886 and 1890. John Mckee had
three sons, the last OF whom living was
Thomas Mckee, who had inherited
the immense estate by the death OF his
father and brothers. The colossal for
tune of Thomas Mckee, as has already
been stated, goes to Ills emily child -
According 70 his viii, she is to have all
his household furniture, thirty three
shares in the Steubenville and Middle
town Turnpike company, all his money
and other personal property, and all his

land over 800 acres also fifty FIVE acres
in CHARTERS township; 207 acres and
1917 perches in Susquehanna township,
Dauphin county; eleven lots in Ale
ghany City, and four lots in Rock
Island, Illinois.
The daughter is requested not to in,
cnlnber the estate by any mortgage on
har own account OF for any husband to
whom she may be married, and not to
divide the property, brt retain it whole,
living on the rents, issues, and profits
thereof One Of the codicils revokes
the former appointment, and makes Col
onel Bayne sole executor. The;remain-
ing codicis bequeath to the daughter
three lots acquired after making the
will.

At o meeting of Conservative Voters
of Rockingham, Col. Chas. r. OFFER
rail, in response to call by the citi
zens of that County delivered short
impro,nptu address. We are glad to
see that the Col. is ready to put on his
armcr, and fight as CALAMITY in the
political contest as he did upon othel
fields for the honor OF his native state
We hope that he may be instrumental
i'll securing the solid vote of the Con
sentative party Of Rockingham for
the nominees Of the Conservative con
ycntion:
lie had not expected to be called up
on to make speech, but feeling the
importance OF the success of the Con
sentative party in the coming Guber-
material campaign, he would endeayoi
to state his position now, as it was
known that he did not support the
Greeley movement last Fall. lie de-
fed any one to say that during the
Presidential campaign he ever intimated
either publicly OF privately, that he had
any sympathy whatever with the Re
publican party. lie opposed both
Grant and Greeley, because they were
Republicans, ard did not vote for eth
or because neither was Conservative
or Democrat.
lie declared that.if devotion to Vir-
gina, to her material interests, her
grand traditions, her unsullied honor,
and opposition to Raeiicalis,u eonsti
tuted Conservatism, no man whether
born and bred upon the sacred and
classic soil Of Virginia OF who had in
good faith adopted NOR AS his mother,
could claim to be Il better Conserva
tive than himself lie was not lisDo-
sed to cast a nettle upon the crave Of g
fallen fee, but must be permitted to
congratulate the country, and especially
his native State upon the return of the
Conservative party TO old landmarks,
and upon the determination, as seen
everywhere, to nominate men who
have been true in the past, and not to
make another policy stroke at the sac
ritice Of priaaciple He was willing to
give his pledgc that the Richmond con-
ventlon would nominate men true and
tried, for whom any Conservative
could vote with pleasure and pride.
He said he would be found in the com
ing campaign battling for the success
Of the Conservative ticket, no matter
whether headed by Kemper, Withers
or any other true man, and closed by
calling upon all who stood with him in
the late Presidential campaign to rally
to the support CT the ticket, bury out Of
sight and forever forget the bitterness
which may have been engendeFcd last
Fall, and to put forth every effort to
secure its success and perpctuate the
ascendancy Of the Conservative party
III Virginia.
