A Curious WILL


The last Morgautown Post publishes the
will of curio,l, old man, who died not long
ago ia Mouongaiia county. named David
Mvcrle, This man prosecuted claim against
the Government for fourteen years for " cX-
periments in the process Of rotting hemp,
made under the direction of the Secretary
Of the Navy" In 1860 Congress granted
him an appropriation Of $4,000. This
money be received and invested, and came
to Monongalia county to live. At his death
it was found that he had disposed Of bis pro-
perty in an unusual sort of way. and in
way quite unsatisfactory to his heirs. His
oLlv daughter, therefore, and her husband
have brought suit to set the will aside
Judge Berkshire, Hon. W. T. Wiley, and
George Sturgiss, Esq, are counsel for the
contestants, and MeSsrs. keck and Hough for
the will. 1t seems that the old genttemtn
left quite number of requests to different
Episcopal churches throughout the country.
Among other requests he left S3 600 to build
an Episcopal church at Morgantown, and re-
marked in bis will as follows 10 regard TO it.:
81 desire that it shall be of that branch or
order of the Protestant Episcopal Church
known as the 'Low-Church,' and that the
soetriues taught in said church shall be
Evaug, licaG.'
In addition TO this bequest he bequeathed
"to the Diocese OF Eastern Virginia and to
the Diocese o! Florida, Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church, each the sum OF $4,000"
Tie also gave $4,000 to the Diocese OF Ne
braska, and 1000 to Trinity parish in Wash
irgton city, and $1,000 to preacher in Han
over county, Va. He also gave 500 for sun
day-school purposes ia Morgantown. In
this last beque>t he specified the application
Of the money Is follows:
II also give and bequeath five hundred
900, dollars for Sunday-school purposes,
which desire shall be applied rs follows: It
is nv desire that ne.half of said sum, two
hundred and fifty (250) dollars, shall so TO
the Sunday school of the said proposed new
Episcopal church to be erected at Morgan.
town, us herein before provided; and the
res idue, two hundred and fifty (23O) dollars,
to the several Sunday schools OF Protestant
ut Morgantown, Granville, and
Jimtown."
The Morgautown Post says that no oppo-
stion was made to the probate OF the WIN,
but since then suit has been brought IN the
Circuit Court 10 inpeach the will, and set
aside and declare null and void all the pecu-
mary requests and legacies therein, on ac-
count OF their vague, uncertain, and indet'
mite character.
