The claim of Miss Edna Bellette Ell
lert, daughter of the late ex-Mayor L.
r. Ellert, to a portion of her father
etsate is again to be aired in the courts
and the allegations contained in the COM
plant filed yesterday give promise OF
furnishing much sensational testimony
Miss EIlert brings suit against Mrs
Sara E. Ellert to set aside an assignment
made by the plaintiff to all claim to hel
share in her fathers estate on the
ground that she was induced to make
the assignment by Mrs. Ellert, who took
advantage of her incapacity and lack
of knowledge of the laws of this coun-
try
The complaint sets forth that Mrs. Ell
lert was appointed administrative Of the
estate on September 3, 1901, and that the
wife, daughter and a son. Arthur l.. Ell
lert, were the sole heirs. The plaintiff
states that she is entitled to an undivided
ne-sixth of an estate that she believes
to be worth $50, 000
She states that she resided in Switzer-
land for eight years, and on October Is
while in Switzerland attending school
her mother took advantage of her inca.
pacity and lack of knowledge of the
United States law and induced her tC
make an assignment for $500 of all in.
terest in the, estate; that her mother
represented to her daughter that the lat
ter's share in the estate was not valued
at more than $500. The plaintiff further
alleges that there was an intent to de.
fraud and asks that the assignment bs
annulled.
