FIGHTING OVER MONEY

AN OLD SUIT TO BE REVIVED

weather is about to be resumed, and there
is no telling when IL will be finished. Mr..
Fayervcathcr was n leather merchant
down ia the Swamp" When he died IL
was discovered that he had left an estate
amounting 10 about 100000. OF this
amount he bequ, aihcd over $4,000 to
different colleges throughout the country
and tn hospitas and other charitable insti-
tutions IN this city. The widow, Lucy
Faycrwcathcr. only received an annuity of
SIS. .Oo and tho house In which she lived,
and some other small bcquests.
The residue of the estate. amounting to
S2.01o,GJ or sJ.O0o.OOo. was given TO the
executors. Thomas e.. Ritch, Henry B.
Vaughan and Jusius l.. Bulkley. abso-
lutely. There was a general belief that
Mr.. Faycrwcathcr made this bequest to
the executors with the understan nding that
they would distribute among the colleges
and other institutions mentioned in the
will. and to such others as the executors
thought best. The reason why Mr.. Fayer-
weather did not give the entire estate to
tho institutions was believed TO be because
the Law did not allow him 10 dispose of
more than n certain share of his estate for
charitable uses.
Tho widow, however. and one or two
relatives were not satisfied with the pro-
visions of tho will and q contest was be-
gun in the surrogaic's court over the doc
umcnt. After this had been in progress
for some time the executors made a deed
of gilt disposing of the entire residue OF
the estate left in their hands To the coll
legcs which Mr.. faycrwcathcr had men-
toned in his will. and also including n
number of other colleges. Mrs. Fayer-
weather also received n larger amount.
The contest was then discontinued, and it
was generally expected that the estate
would be disposed of without further
trouble.
Mrs. Fayerweather died on July l. last,
and about ten days ago n motion was
made in the surrogate's court having for
It's purpose tho settling of the collateral
inheritance tax on Mr.. Fayerwcather's es-
tate. Al that time the fact was made
known IN court that Mrs. Fayerweather
had become dissatisfied with the disttibu-
tion-of her husbands estate, and that
only four days before she died she had be-
gun a SUIT in the supreme court To have
the will set aside. The collateral inner.
itance tax matter was then adjourned for
the purpose of having the question settled
whether or not the suit which she had be-
gun survived her death. A motion was
IN idc before Justice Patterson in the SUI
preme court. chambers, to revive that
suit. and that motion was granted yes
tcrday. The legal tangle will be much
greater than ever now. The suit will be
continued by the executors OF Mrs. Fayer-
weather. They are John B. Reynolds and
