which was worth in the ncighborhood
of $500. Mean 0hile l had borrowed q
few hundreds more 10 cover current
expenses, for Of course couldn't waste
my time In scribbling while my wife's
vast interests were at stake.
The FIRST real light on the subject
came IN the form OF statement from
our lawyer. 1t was neatly done in
typewriter copy, and was so pretty
that Il would have been pleasure to
read II but for its import. 1t contained
an account Of funds disbursed, and dis
closed the fact that about every third
man in the United States who was of
sound mind, and several who were not,
had been engaged IN the service Of the
estate. Our lawyers personal account
was there Il was itemized down to
the uttermost farthing. with q scrupu-
lous dishonesty which won my envy.
Some of the items contained delicate
fattery. such rs this: ITO having boots
blacked in order to receive Mr.. Fielding
properly, l0c." II would have been q
perfect legal document but for one
hlemish-onc little item that did not i'm
clude an overcharge. II was: ITO post
age furnished Mr.. Fielding in corre-
spondenoe relating to the estate. &c. !"

esting items were: 100 special guar
dams At 90 es1o." and taking deposi-
lions Of Cssar Augustus and Lavinia

depossd and said that they were in no

The document closed with the state

The opinion Of his deputy, and had de-
sided that the will created . trust, and
therefore, under its provisions the
trustee fnclosed the sum Of 10 cents,
being the amount due TO each Of thirty
oine heirs for the quarterly interest AZ
per cent on the trust fund Of e624 re-
naming after all legal charges against
the estate had been paid, which charges
amounted In all to e9.37s. So our
wealthy Uncle Rufus had been worth
about s. 600.
Further, we were directed. command

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1891-07-01

The Aldermen of 1891 have risen to the
occasion in surprising manner and by the
crushing vote of 16 to have declared that the
Elevated Railroad Company is an intruder IN
Battery Park and that the tracks and structures
should be expelled forthwith. People who 90
down to the Battery to-day TO see the distln-
euished City Fathers in the act of expeling SAID
tracks and structures with axes in their hands
and fire in their eyes, will behold no such in
sp.1,ng spectacle. The Aldermen have no act
ual power in the premises their decision Is Only
valuable for its moral effect. AS the member
who presented the report that was adopted ne
marked the action can only be regarded as on
expression of opinion. As such, however 1t
may fairly be accepted as rejecting popular
sentiment, so far at least as the management
of the elevated roads is concerned,
