= Another move in the De Boissiere
l.. o. o. F. Orphans home case was
made at Ottawa when Attorneys
TroutInan and Stone, of Topeka, filed
attachment proceedings against all
the personal and real property of
L. C.. Slime, president of the board of
trustees of the defunct orphans
home. The Kansas supreme court
recently gave the title of the home
property to the Topeka attorneys,
who had purchased the interests of
the French heirs of the late V. De
Boissiere. Froutman and Stone
claim there is due them not less than
$4,000 from De Boissiere's personal
property and from rents and profits
on the estate since 1892. Slime is a
man of considerable wealth. He has
been in active charge of the De Bois-
siere estate since the property was
willed to the Kansas odd feHows in
1892.
