the probate department against the Nc
Elwaine estate for s22.574.6s. The claim is
against Claude NJ. McElwaine administra-
tor of the estate of M. NJ McElwaine 1t
is asserted that Leonard loaned NJ M. Nc
Elwaine the money and agreed to take 45c
shares of stock of the McElwaine- Rich
ards Company as collateral security. Leon
ard lives in Pittsburg. Pa, where Neil
waine went to secure the loan. A certificate
was given for the stock, and McElwaine
was to return with IL to Indianapolis to
have the transfer made to Leonard. Be-
fore starting for home McElwaine became
I'll and died in Pittsburg. and the transfer
was never made, as the certificate for stock
had never left his pocket. The claim pre-
scented is in the nature of an amount due
on a note and represents almost the value
of the estate.
