WHY CHECK WAS NOT CASHED
BANK FILES REPLY TO SUIT OF
ADMINISTRATOR CLAYs0N.
Claims Funds Credited TO Account
of His Murdered Son Were PART
nershfp Moneys, and Therefore
Not Subject to Personal Check.

Dexter Horton & Co. yesterday filed
their answer to the plaintiffs complaint
In the suit recently instituted by Edward
Clayson. sr., as administrator of the es-
tate of his son. Frederick III. Clayson, who
is supposed to have been murdered in
Alaska. The banks answer to the allega-
tons of the plaintiff reveals another phase
of the contest which q now being waged
between the father and son over the dis
position OF the estate in probate. The
court is asked TO uphold the defendant in
the exercise OF it's discretion in refusing TO
pay over funds which, while apparently
the property of deceased. were owned by
a partnership concern.
After Frederick Clayson had been miss
ing many weeks the father applied to the
courts for letters of administration. rep
resenting that his SON died intestate, and
they were granted upon the prima facie
showing Armed with evidences OF au-
thority to assume control OF the funds Of
the estate the administrator applied to
Dexter Horton e. Co. for money which was
upon deposit in the bank to the credit of
Frederick II. Clayson. The bank. in ig-
norance OF the matters alleged in its an
swer filed yesterday, transferred the ac-
count amounting to $3,472, to the credit
of the administrator.
