. Contest over $4,000, 900 Contest.

-
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. IA contest
has been begun over the $4,000, 900
estate of Jacob z. Davis, who died re-
Gently at Philadelphia. The contestants
are Rev. Joseph P. Wilson, Method
ist minister of West Virginia and Mrs.
Catherine Stead, respectively nephew
and niece of Davis The contestants
state that their uncle's true name was
not Davis, but Bedicker, and that he
changed his name when he came to CAL
ifornia in l849 that he might conceal his
identity and thereby escape from an
apprenticeship. His entire estate was
left to two nieces Of his wife, Lizzie
Muir and Bell Curtis and the contest
ants claim to be the only blood relatives
and heirs of Davis. They allege mental
unsoundness and undue influence as
grounds for the contest.
