SHE PLAYED FOR A FORTUNE
Which wOuIa Not he Hers Unless She
Bore Her Husband q Child

Which WOuIa Not he Hers Unless She
Bore Her Husband q Child
The arrest of Mrs. Cunning S Bed
ford brought to light one of the most
ingenious attempts ever made by a
woman to obtain a fortune by intro
ducing an adopted child as her own
offspring. Bcdford's father was the
late Frederick Bedford. of New York
When Frederick Bedford died he left
an estate worth between 100000 and
100000 in trust, interest from which
was to go to his son, Cunning S. Bed
ford, during the latter's lifetime. and
after death to his children. If, how
ever. Cunning :. Bedford died child
less, the interest in the estate was TO
go to other heirs of Frederick Bed
ford.
Cunning S. Bedford for years did
not enjoy good health. About 1890
he married Miss Middleton in Wash
ingtOn. Several years afterward Mr..
and Mrs. Bedford went to Paris. Last
December Mrs. Bedford came TO Lon
don and remained several days. She
then returned to Paris. While Mrs.
Bedford was in London Bedford grew
worse and died March II. Immedi-
ately following the announcement of
his death his friends were surprised
to hear that 4 daughter had been born
to Mrs. Bedford in December while
she was in London.
Accompanied by the child. she went
to New York, taking with her the
body of her late husband. After q du-
neral at the cathedral in New York
Mrs. Bedford called upon the trustees
of her late father-in-law's estate, pre-
sented the child and showed the ceT-
tificate of its birth. which stated it had
been born in London Dec. IL, 1902.
