The presentation Of testimony. which had
been In progress for a week. was concluded
yesterday at o'clock. Judge Marshall de-
livered verbal opinion. The suit was filed
as William A. Adger and Others against
Thomas F. Ackerman, Public Administrator
of st. Louis County.
The action was brought by brothers Of
Alfred W. Fleming. Sr.. and other collateral
heirs. represented by Adger to restrain Ad-
ministrator Alderman from turning over
the personal property left by Fleming to
Mathew Quan. father OF F1eming's second
wife. and guardian Of Fleming's second
wife's son, Alfred W. Fleming, Jr. The
claim was made that the boy was not the
son Of Alfred W. Fleming, Sr, by reason of
alleged circumstances Of birth.

mony showed that F1emina Sr., was d.

In the Inheritance Of the Fleming estate He |
decided that. although the child was born /
out Of wedlock. yet the fact that Fleming |

to show that he regarded the boy a. his |
rightful heir. Judge Marshall accordingly
