There is law IN the state that no

gate Theodore H. Silkman, of West

his decision in the Warren Tompkins
will contest by the appellate division

cision the beneficiaries are the heirs
of Marion Tompkins, deceased. Her

years ago. lie has since been living as
a recluse in White Plains. The build

such a filthy condition that Commits
siOner DAILY and Harry Dykman decided
to burn down the building with its
contents. A torch was applied. lothian
stood by and watched the preparations
Suddenly, but very calmly, he said,
You are burning up lots of money in
that house" The fire was put out
with water from the brook a few feet
away and lothian, with Mr. Dykman
and others. rushed in to save the
money. lothian ran to the bed and
secured from beneath an old bedtick
several thousands dollars worth of
bonds, mortgages and other
securities. In an old clock, taken from
a corner of the floor was packed $500
in bills and coin. The bills, ranging
from 81 to $50 were each folded in a
small wad. and tied with a thread. A
score Of tin cans contained more, in all
amounting to several thousand dollars
While the search was going on the
old house took fire from the smoldering
embers and everybody had to rush from
the flames. lothian claimed that sew
