GUARDIAN ROBINSON SUES
HE HAS TAKEN ACTION AGAINST
THE EVERY EVENING FOR AL
LEGED LIBEL.

Henry c. Robinson this morning en-
tered suit against the Every Evening
Tor libel, and the summons was to-day
served upon Samuel Bancroft. Jr.
president of the printing company. Ex-
Mayor Austin Harrington represents
him.
He excepts to an article printed in
last evenings issue OF that paper, claim
ing that II reflects upon his manage
ment of the estate of the Churchman
heirs. The offensive part OF the story
was as follows:
when Mrs. Paulina Churchman died
considerable property was left to her
four children, of whom the Miss
Churchman named was one. While,
through mismanagement, n consider
able portion of the property has been
lost, there still remains ample income
for the support and education of the
children. All of the income. as well as
the principal, has been under the con-
troll Of the guardian, Henry G. Robin
SON. whose duty 1t was to see that the
income was properly applied. IL was
his duty to pay any bills for which the
estate Of the minor child was RESPONSE
BILE, and to see that the income was first
applied to such payments.
when Miss Churchman came OF age
yesterday, she found that this had not
been done, and the summons in, the
matter Of the bill OF the Misses Hebl
was served upon her. Miss Churchmaf
has repeatedly asked that this bill
should be paid by the guardian, whit
has not done so, and now that she vii
get her own property she will see tha
| il is paid Immediately.
Miss Churchman is sure that tn
Misses Hebb had nothing whatever q
do with the way in which the suit wa
brought or the summons served. rher
was absolutely no necessity for it's be
ing done in this way. as she has ampl
property here to meet any such debt
She is frequently here herself and ther
is no danger of the bill being outlawe'
She was very much annoyed at the put
licity which has been given this trifiin
manner"
Mr. Robinsons attorney claims thf
his clients conduct of the affairs OF th
estate has been strict, straight an
, honorable.
