A New Trustee,

w. E. Walsh, of Cumberland. was
last Saturday appointed by judge
Boyd trustee of the James Percy es-
tate, filing bond in the sum of
$3.50, 900. The Cumberland Neus furth-
err says:
James Percy, who was man of large
means, created a trust estate by will for the
benefit of his heirs. OF the trustees originally
named, Alexander Sloan, father of Judge d.
w. Sloan, was relieved upon his own petition
to the court; Douglas Percy, father of William
R. Percy, never qualified and thus William
r. Percy became sole trustee.
The heirs were James H. Percy, of this city ;
Mrs. Sidney Wolfe, widow Of the late Thomas
Wolfe, of Frederick Mrs Rebecca E. Blake,
of Frederick, and Mrs. Susan NJ. Swami, now
deceased, who resided IN Pittsburg Under
the provisions of the will James H. Percy
received his share of the estate some years
ago Mrs. Blake and Mrs. Wolfe are entitled
to certain annuities during their lives and at
their death the body of their portion of the
estate goes to their children. Mrs Swami is
dead and her share will be distributed to her
children in few days. The Swami heirs all

and testify that Schiller, Barney Schrei-
