TIE PRESENT PHA6I OF THU LICK TI4Hco. :
Several Of ths daily. .papsrs uphold James Lie
In his indefensib,s attempt TO revoke l. solena
and voluntary Action Of his own. They plea
that in his attempted revocation he only mean
to do this, that, or the other. These papor
claim that he hss perfect right to do what b
wishes with his Own. etc. The fact, however,
| that Nr. Lick han no moro right to revoke hi
first will and conveyance to TruRtesa (unl&ss
be EhoHn thas he wzx ct unsound mind u th
tma) than any other person who has eve
tnsde legal conveyance Of propert,
hers. Il Lick" can Justly revoke hi
gifts. and il it is mean to Attemp
to prevent bis doing so. then the Trustees O
| meanly il they refused to surrender donationi
| which the donors 'ahould ask to hare returned
| to them No one asked Lick for his property,
and he hss neither equitable nor legal right te
ask for its return. Aid, sthermore, it cannot,
| BY any possibility Of means, b returned to him
30 Is, to make the title perfect In him again,
unless On the ground OF his being insane when
ha, decided it away. Some OF tho papers have
been .enngratula7ng- the public that, sincs
tho surrender to one OF our courts
by the Trustees. there will not b. q
lawsuit: Their congratulations, wo fear. are
v2ia. Ono OF the most costly and protracted
suite ever known is still almost CERTAIN to grow
out Of the matter. Lick cannot now prevent this,
and neither can the Trustees. Tha title must
be shown to ba without cloud in somebody 1T ia

I'd it by raising doubt OF his sanitr. The
courts viii have to say who it is in, and 1ome OF
the most comPdcated points OF law and equity
