GIRL AND MOTHER
FIGHT FOR ESTATE
WILL OF LATE FRANK GERLING
Is ATTACKED
Property Left to Son and Daue, er,
Who, Wife Alleges, Unduly
Influenced Their
Father

Alleging that her husband had been
erty to his daughter just prior to his
death, Mrs Jessie Reynolds Gerling of
Hollywood yesterday brought contest
against the will of the late Frank Ger
ling and against the claims of the step
daughter, Kate Gerling, before Judge
Gibbs in department of the superior
court.
Mrs. Gerling was married in 1901.
She was 36 years old and her husband
was II. They lived together in a beau
tiful residence at Pasadena during
their married life. On December 5,
1904, Gerling made q will, deciding all
his property, amounting to about $780,
600 in government bonds and real
estate, to his wife.
From the time they were married in
San Francisco until January of 1905
Gerling never visited his daughter and
son at Pomona, but in January of last
year he made visit to them and while
/ there signed new will, in which he
left all his property to his daughter
and son.
Finds Small Estate
Then he returned home and died two
months later. When the young wife
filed petition for probate she learned
that the estate was said to amount to
about $1,000 and that Miss Kate Ger
ling, the daughter, had Leen named as
executriX. The daughter is older than
the Stepmother.
Mrs. Gerling then filed contest to the
later will. She alleged that her hus-
band was of unsound mind when he
made the last will and that he had
been unduly influenced by his children
She charged that $4,000 of the estate
had been loaned to Edward Gerling
the son, who was one of the directors
of the firm of Laud & Gerling of Po-
mona and that no security had been
received
Sh further charged that the daugh-
ter had bought the homestead, valued
at $4,000, and had paid $500 on it. AS a
last allegation, she charged that there
had been a conspiracy between the two
children whereby Kate Gerling, as ex-
ecutriX, was to make no mention OF
either transaction in clearing up the
estate. This left but $1,000 in property.
Tie case will be continued today, as
evidence regarding the condition OF
Gerling's mind at the time he signed
the last will is to be taken.
