TITLE IS ATTACKED.
Left by W. E. Mauldin is
 in Eoyr oyrtrnvArav


 Ozark. Sept .2.-(Special.)-A sensation was sprung here last week when 1t was announced that the title and sale of din heirs, was to be, attacked. The ty was bought by some of ozark's most influential financial interests, among the purchasers being the Merchants and Planters Bank.
 w. E. Mauldin was twice married, the first wife being Mrs. Kelly, sister of Judge Jesse M. Carmichael. president of the State Convict Board. By her he had one heir, now Mrs. Emmett Killebrew. of Newton. The second wife was Miss Whitford Mauldin. l.. c. Mauldin, Vincie Matthews, and by her he had one son and one daughter. Mrs. wafdlaw and brother of W. E. Mauldin, deceased, Is guardian for the latter heirs and all re- side in Arkansas
 It Is claimed by Mrs. Killebrew that the title to this property was vested in her mother, and that the title went over in error to the second wife. Attorneys for heirs by the second marriage claim they can establish the right of Mrs. Mary wardlaw and Whitford Mauldin to this property by deeds made in part to the same property by the second wife, and by the testimony of the executors. C.. L. Mauldin, as guardian. filed suit in chancery court yesterday to quiet title and the case will come up for hearing be- fore Chancellor Parks in October. As the court records were all destroyed by fire in 1888. the case promises to be very interesting.
