j. GARDNER KENYON'S HEIRS.
Three Relatives Of tho Dead MAJ
Pound in New York state.

When J. Gardner Kenyon's will was admitted
to probate on December 81 it became known that
70 one Benjamin Kenyon, rather vaguely &C.
scribed in the will as ''my cousin, residing in
thelDominion Of Canada" was heQueathed the
bulk OF his property. AZ the estate 10 a large
one, consisting Of property at the corner Of Mad
ison and Front streets: lot at the corner of
Seneca and Front streets: property on CONNER
ciAl street, ana 400 acres OF land near Kent,
valued in all at $4,000. diligent inquiry has
been made to determine the whereabouts of the
missing heir. Hitherto all efforts have been in
vain. bu, a dis patch received by the Posi- INTEL
LIGENcER from Batavia, n. Y, reveals the TACT
that one OF his brothers, nephew and a sister
fn-law are living there: also that OF two brothers
who are dead one was named Benjamin Kenyon.
The value of the estate IL overs,ated in the dis
patch, for 1t ID about $4,000. instead Of $780,.
coo. The dispatch is as follows

shim three brothers. Burr Kenyon. Benjamin
Kenyon aud David Kenyon. Nothing more was
heard of the fortune hunter until recently,
when one j. Gardner Kenyon, OF Seattle, Wash,
died possessed of property valued at 81, 90 COO
In his will he beQueathed the bulk of his large
fortune to one Benjamin Kenyon, whom the
will does not definitely identity. The author
lies at Seattle are at loss to discover the real
heirs. II IL admitted by friends OF the late J.
Gardner Kenyon in seattle that he had several
times said he had left relatives in Batavia, n. Y.
