Congressman Willard has received a reply
from Gen. Sehenck, United States minister
to Great Britain, to letter Of inquiry in
regard to the Chase Estate about which
so much has been printed of late in Vermont
papers. Gen. Schenck's letter says "yours is
one Of very many letters which have been
coming to this Legation, making enquiries in re-
grad to thisChase Estate; and it is not thought
here that there is any foundation for the
claims Of heirs which have been encouraged
by newspaper paragraphs in the United
States" In making the above public the
Freeman says to our knowledge interests
in this estate are made subjects Of sale at the
present time IN Vermont, and men who can
i'll afford pecuniary loss are investing money
in this wild-goose chase"
