NEWTON BOOTHS DAUGHTER.
She Wants n Larger share of His Estate

She Wants n Larger share of His Estate
Than He Left Her.
Mrs. Emma Sterrett, 10 whom the late ex-
Governor Newton Booth bequeathed a
legacy af $4,000 and 100 shares of stock in
the J. n. Booth Company, is thinking Of
contestinG the will in the hope of getting a
larger share Of the estate. Her reason for
taking the step is that she believes she is
the natural daughter of the deceased and OF
right entitled to larger share Of her
fathers property.
The claimants story Is that somewhere in
the winter of 1886 her mother. Mrs Emily
Putnam, then widow. bore very intimate
relations with young Booth. In May 1856,
during the absence OF the latter In the East,
a man named Smith compelled Mrs. Put
nam to marry him. and two months later a
girl baby was born. This child was not
christencd for many years afterwsrd.
when, at the instance of Newton Booth,
that ceremony was performed and Mrs.
Smith was induced to let the child take
Booths name.
The mother died in 1875. and on her DEATH
bed she confessed to her child, the present
claimant. that Newton and not Smith was
her father. After the mothers death the
Ex-Governor provided for the child, who
subsequently married. became a widow,
tried marriage again and thus became Mrs.
Sterreit. Her second marriage proved an
unhappy one and she consulted Newton
Booth abont getting a divorce On that oc-
casion he told her himself that she was his
daughter
