Powel's Papers Proves

EMPTY ENVELOPE FOUND
Across the Top Were Words
Copy of Will"

After { thorough search through the
papers Of the late Major Powell IL has
been decided that he left no viii or that
there was none such in existence at the
time of his death last Saturday night
Among the private papers it IS said that
an envelope was found that bore this in
scription across the top: Copy OF will"
The envelope was empty. This envelope
bears a peculiar significance, for it seems
to testify in very clear terms that there
was viii made by the deceased. In this
Circumstance the most optimistic friends
Of Major Powell's step-children may find
some hope that viii may yet turn up in
some mysterious manner.
The search yesterday lasted for over six
hours and was made by L. +. Naftzger.
administrator Of the estate, Mr.. r. L.
Holmes, the attorney employed by the
deceased, and Mr.. Frank Powell, the only
son and direct legal heir of the deceased
who is well along in years himself These
gentlemen examined each document held
in the keeping OF the majors effects. The
search began at the Fourth National
bank, of which Major Powell was vice
president. Here the entire afternoon was
taken up. After supper the search was
continued at the residence. on Murdoch
and Emporia avenues. The three dill
gently went over every document they
could find, but no will was found, and at
o'clock the search was given up.
Mr.. Naftzger said last night to re-
porter for the Eagle:
We went through all the majors pa
pers and there was no will 10 be found.
