New York relatives In all about thirty,
are claimants to $50 900, 600, which
amount Is being held In trust by the
English Government for the heirs OF an
Englishman named Woods, whom the
Eakin family claim to have been their
great great grandfather.
There are several sets Of claimants for
the immense fortune. but the set to
which the Eakiu family belong asserts
that Il Is the rightful claimant, and de-
clares that the ttuthfulness Of its claim
can be proved. The Eakin claimants
have sent a New York lawyer to En.

claim for the money some years ago,
