THE WILL LOST. THE WIFE LOSES
The Widow OF Peter Gibson Gets but
One-Third of the Estate.
(By the Associated Press }

Columbus, o.. June 13.-The -Su-
preme court today affirmed the judg-
ment of the Hamilton county court in
the case of Henrietta Cecilia Gibson
against Peter Gibson.
This is the celebrated case involving
the will of John Mccormick Gibson,
of Cincinnati, who died at Asheville,
n. c.. several years ago, a few hours
after marrying Henrietta Cecilia
Wolfe. a nurse. He made a will be-
aueathing property valued at $3.50, 900
to his wife, but the will was lost.
In the absence of witnesses who
could prove otherwise, the supposition
was that the invalid destroyed the
will, as no trace of it could ever be
found The widow therefore received
but the statutory one-third.
