FOUND A FORTUNE.

Gardiner, October ga peculiar case
will be hsard before Judge Stevens OF the
probate court for this county, 1t growing
out of the case whers SO much money
was reputed to be found at the home OF
Mary f. Mooers at South Gardner at the
time OF her deceass last April. She was
the only daughter Of the late Eek lei
Sawyer of South Gardiner, and In the
summer of 1854 she married Capt. Lewis
Mooers who died two or three years later
on a voyage from Hong Kong to Manila.
Mrs. Mo0ers has ever since lived In South
Gardiner. Her father died In 1877, leav-
ing his property to his three children, two
sons, and Mrs. Mooers. One Of the sons,
Charles, died some five years ago, lenv-
ing mis- property to his brother and sister.
Mrs. Blair of Bath, who is niece OF
Capt. Mooers, now comes forward and
claims that her uncle's estate was never
settled and that portion Of the money
found in Mrs Mooers's house belonged
to Captain Mooers's estate. This claim
will ultimately be the ground for the
contest before the probate court, 1t has
been reported that from $4,000 to $1,000
was found in Mrs. Mooers's house. but
s20,G will probably be nearer the
amount. The result Is awaited with con
siderable interest.
