WEEDS AFTER LONG LITIGATION.
Oil Mans Widow Marries Man Who
Tried to Break Will.

Mrs. Fannie Wayne Hopkins, widow of
the late Major Robert Hopkins, one of
the original Standard Oil organizers, who
died in 1901, leaving a fortune of $o,-
100000, was married at Newton, Pa, to
Fred ID. Leroy, of Tarrytown, the guard
ian of her son, who for five years fought
the will in the courts in an effort to gain
for the boy the greater part of the for
tune. When the question of the validity
of Major Hopkins will first came up
Mr.. Leroy, as the guardian of Robert e.
Hopkins, minor, started what was then
believed to be a friendly suit to settle the
estate. In the event he won,, the boy
would receive some $3,5O0,000 and the
widow about S1,5O0.OOO. The suit passed
from the friendly stage when the courts
appointed another guardian, who insisted
on continuing the contest despite the
wishes of Mrs. Hopkins son. The will
was declared valid on May last and the
widow received two-thirds of the fortune.
