1t will be remembered that Mr..
Creole, in his will, made three requests
to the Harvey boys, whose Whereabouts
are not known and who were supposed
to have been friends of Creede's in his
boyhood days. NJ. c. Harvey was given
$500, Jerome Harvey $4,000 and j. w.
Harvey 81. The last named is we'll off,
Creole recites in. his will, but he men,
toned his name just to show that he ha d
not forgotten him.
AT the time of Mr.. Creedes death it
was mentioned that he had three broth
ers: Jerome L. Creole, an attorney, liv-
ing at Manitou, Colo; ]. w. Creole, at
Leon, Iowa, and Mcconnell Creole, liv-
ing at Forney, Texas.
1t will be observed that in each case
the names agree, except that Harvey is
used in the will instead of Creole. There
is nothing whatever to reflect upon the
dead mar in the story, but it adds a
shade of somber romance to his life.
From the fact that, as he says in his
letter, Creole had not spoken to his
brother since he returned home to get
married and found the girl he loved
married to him, it is probable that the
one who is cut off with 81 in the will is
the one who figures in the romance.
