TWO LARGE ESTATES.
The Walter Estate Valued at over
S25OOOO

The estates of the late George Walter and
Alderman r. d. BoRart seem TO be some
what complicated, to judge from the reports
made to the Court of Ordinary by the ex-
ecutors of the will of the former and of the
administrators Of the estate of the latter.
The executors of Mr.. Walters will,
Messrs. Is. A. Denmark and H. III. Conner,
filed their report last week. and after a long
inventory of the estate, which aggregates
in value over s250,0O0, they say: "We are
unable to fix the status of the estate.
This is due to the complicated condition OF
the stocks and varying interests Of the de-
ceased, which is very largely pledged as
collateral for extensive loans to the Way
cross Lumber Company and the Reppard
Iron Company. In fact, they set down
over 81, 900 III insolvent notes, and one note
Of 81 800 as being worthless.
Mr. Walters estate is divided as follows:
Real estate s29, 800, and personal property
1924 800 90 making a total OF s264,-
COB 70. Twenty thousand dollars OF
the real estate Is "pledgedp to secure $780,
900 bonds of the WaycroSs Lumber Com
pany, and of the personal property $780,
500 q per cent bonds OF the Waycross Lum
Der Company are pledged for S137, 900;
forty-three shares of stock in the Southern
Bank of Georgia are pledged" 81, 900 CITY
VI DOuuS HlOuBCu, OCO
shares of the stock of the Reppard Iron
Company are pledged to the Southern
Bank for a loan OF S13, 440"
While the Waycross Lumber Company Is
bonded for SI59,500, it appears from the
schedule that there were but 900 shares OF
the stock, of which $50 shares were owned
by the deceased, and these are valued at
only $1,000.
The real estate of the deceased consisted
Of lot 46 Jasper ward, valued at 5000; the
Pliny Sheffield place, 557 acres in Brooks
county, g., 900; the Wicker place, 900 acres
in Calhoun county, $3.50; half interest in
a lot in Arlington, Ga, $50. and forty acres
in Decatur and twenty and one-half acres
in DeKalb county, the two tracts
being valued at 800, 600 and both pledged
to secure the $4,000 Waycross Lumber
Company's bonds.
The administrators of Robert D. Bogart's
estate are not very clear as to
the status OF his estate. They esti-
innate the value of his late residence
on Huntingdon street at So, 800 and
the personal estate, cash, $240 30; checks,
SIP, SO 81, and tho rest, which is book ac-
counts aud notes. make an aggregate valua-
ton of the estate Of SAG, 044 20. They re-
report that the deceased had one-third in
terest in Robert Dickson's estate in Vir-
ginia, which they are not able to value,
but that they are in correspondence with
John Il. Bogart, brother of the deceased, who
has charge of the Dickson estate. The
statement from the books of Bogart a.
Hammond is very voluminous, and of the
condition Of affairs connected with the
partnership the executors say: "Mr Bogart
was several years with j. p Hammond,
under the firm name Of Bogart g. Ham
mond, but whether or not their assets are
worth anything the administrators are not
advised, nor do we know the exact status of
Messrs. Bogart & Hammond's accounts,
and therefore cannot value them"
