FRANKLIN COUNTY.
In the MAYHEM will contest in the Massa-
chusetts courts, in which Elijah Norton,
ESQ.,, of Pennington, and other Franklin
county heirs are interested, the Supreme
Court sitting at Taunton has affirmed the de-
cision of the Dukes county Probate Court
case to the lower court. In the latter tribu-
nal before Judge Pease at Esgartewn the
will has been admitted to probate, and Be
riah T. Hilman and Jared Mayhem IND,
both of Chilmark, have been recognized as
executors. The contest for the Maine neirs,
Hon. +. S. Hesseltine OF Boston, ana John
N. Pierce, Esq, of Edgartown, now take
general appeal, and the case comes up Tor
final adjudication.
The Belcher property at Pennington, be-
longing to Bates College, is advertised 10 pc
sold for taxes. 1t seems that the year the
estate was in court during the attempt TO
break the will of Mr.. Belcher the assessors
taxed the entire property. When 1t was de-
cided tnat Bates College was to have the be-
quest its managers refused to pay the tax ON
the ground that the property is exempt from
taxation as is all school and church proper
ty. The selectmen of Pennington, Fred 9.
Perkins, Hiram Titcomb and Samuel G.
Craig, refused to abate the tax, claiming
that the property did not accrue to Bates
College until the final decision was rendered.
At the 1887 town meeting, Pennington
voted to abolish its liquor agency, and at the
meeting this spring it refused to re-establish
it, Another town meeting was called which
resulted as before in the defeat of the meas
ure.
