ecutor Of her estate by the will Of her husband.
Between Mrs. Lane and Corle there were many
conflicts over the disposal Of the property,
which eliminated in suits and countcrsuits.
The cost of litigation is said to have greatly re-
duced tho value OF the estate. Tho farms were
sold and most Of the estate converted into cash,
which was under the control OF Corle.
Mrs. Lane was defeated In the courts. and for
tho past year she has frequently visited the
Offices OF the newspapers here, with written
