West Bountiful have filed an answer TO
the sensational petition for their removal
and the revocation of their letters of ad-
m1n1stratiOn which was presented to the
district court by Lois II. Argyle, one of
the heirs of Mr.. Coltrin. The petition
abounded with charges of misappropria-
ton of estate funds, embezzlement and

ton by which Louisa Coltrin purchased

turn the stock to the estate. The answer

ties concerned it is being watched with
