When Russell Avery, a well-known man

$40 900 estate. This was filed a few DAYS
after his death by Francis Avery his
father. a wealthy resident of Sausalito

and she filed a petition asking that she
be appointed Administrative of the estate
Under the will she is the sole legatee of
the estate of her late husband and she is
also named executrix. The document is
Photographic and bears date of August 7,
1901. 1t was given into her possession
short time after it was made and she kept
it's existence a secret until it was shown
to her that the law provides that any one
possessing will of any deceased per-
son must file ii within thirty days after
death Because of her divorce from the
deceased several months ago the will is
said to be of little value to her. but il is
evident that she intends to make a fight
for the property.
