The EdgelieId Real Estate and
Building and Loan association.

This organization is now in the
fourth month of it's existence. About
five hundred of it's shares have been
taken, and new takers are constantly
applying for shares. Under the rules
Of the Association no fund could be
loaned out until three monthly install.
ments had been paid in. The third
monthly instalment was paid in on
the first day of April-at which time
drawing was had TO determine the
order in which the share holders shall
be entitled to loans. At the April
meeting of the Board of Directors the
funds paid in up to date were loaned
out on good real estate security for
five years and two and a half years
respectively at ten per cent. Here
after the Directory will loan out each
collection as soon as it comes in for
any period from one year to ten years
The funds Of the Association can be
readily placed in Edge6eld County
on the very best security, at good
rates. We predict that this institu'
tion will rapidly increase its stock
holders and soon grow into great
popularity and usefulness, and that
in louror five years the share holders
will be 10th to part with their stock
at any price.

A Fortune for Somebody.
From the Neu York Tribune.

From, the NeD York Tribune. J !
According to the statement Of J ohm
P. Jayne, an "old claim" lawyer
who inhabits picturesque loft in the
building at No. 7 Murray street, there
is G35 900 in the hands of her Males
tvs solicitor.general, in London,
awaiting the American heirs Of Ffah-
els and Martha Brennan. In the ear:
ly part Of the eighteenth century TWO
Swedish or Norwegian noblemeh,
John and Francis Brennan, emigrated
to England. John lived in Ksnsiug.
ton, London, and died in 1870, lea'7-
ing three boys and two girls. The
first two boys, John and Francis, liv.
ed and died in England, and left no
trace of their existence but their
grave stones. One of the daughters,
Anna, married Benjamin Young, who
died in Rochester. England, in 1914
Anna died in 1859, interstate and left
the fortune which the British Crown
is kindly taking care of for it's right
full owners.
Annals sister Letitia became Mrs.
Dixon, and liyedin Edinburgh, where
she died without children, and with.
out leaving any embarrassment 10 the
full enjoyment of the estate, which is
all for the American heirs. Thus
Henry is the only brother Of Anna
whose right to the money may prove
disturbing problem. He came to
America and died in South Carolina,
leaving a will in which Miss Eliza
Maria Carson, or Elliott, described az
his second cousin, is made his sole
residuary legatee. By what process
Miss Carson, or Elliott, became Hen
ry Bremars second cousin is not
known. Her father was clergyman
and her moth, was Miss Bush, both
natives Of South Carolina, and they
died Of the plagne at Georgetown.
But if the alleged relationship Of Miss
Carson, or Elliott, to Henry Brennan
can be established, she, if living, or.
her representatives, if dead, is enti-
tied to large portion Of tn the fortune
in the Queens 8 treasury.
The most likely heirs, however, are
the descendants of the original Fran
els Brennan, the brother Of the origi-.
nal John, who was Anna's father.
Francis came to this country and set
tied in South Carolina, where he
Joined his destiny to that of Martha
Laurens. They were blessed with a
daughter, called aftero her mother,
who in l75G married Sir Egerton
Leigh, his Majesty's attorney general
and surveyor general. and member OF
the Council Of South Carolina. Now,
if anybody can show that Sir Eyer
tons blood flows in his veins, let him
draw 1T sight on The Bank of Eng,
land for G95 900, and have it tcharged
to the account Of Anna Young nee
Brennan.

be suppressed by the authorities, and
urging him to arrange SO that the
