 sDo you expect to realize anything from this vast estate?" asked the re porter.
 eCan't say: the heirs or descendants have lawyers at work on the case. The ninety-nine years expired about eleven years ago, and the case has been in the hands of the lawyers, who for eight years have been diligently searching the country over for the descendants. About two years ago a detective was sent over the-country looking them up. I have sent my papers on proving my identity. was reminded of this fact by reading a communication in your paper making in quify about the heirs of William fSd- wards, who was a brother of my great grandmother"

The original deeds were brought over from Wales by special agent. and there can be no doubt about what I tell you being facts.
