OBJECTIONS TO
LUCWEIKO WILL
WIDOW OBJECTS TO REQUEST TO
CATHOLIC MISSION AND AL
LEGES UNDUE INFLUENCE.

The Will of the late Frank Lucweiko
is to be contested by his widow MIN
ME Lucweillo, a notice of which con
test was filed this morning through
T. M. Harrison her attorney.
By the will in question the deceas-
ed bequeathed one-half of his pro-
perty to the Catholic Mission and
made other requests which left the
widow less than half OF the estate.
Later Father Valentine presented the
will for probate.
The widows contention is that the
deceased was influenced by Father
Valentine in making the will he did,
while he was mentally incompetent
to understand what he was doing The
will is dated August goth, and on Au-
gust 21st LucweIko died after a sew
eral months illness.
Without the will, the widow would
be the sole heir, and as she alleges
the entire estate is not sufficient to
support her, her husband, she de-
Clares, would not have deprived her
of more than half of it unless unduly
influenced.
The matter will come up tomorrow
before Judge De Bolt.
The estate consists of several lots
and less than $500 worth of personal
property.

came so loud that Saturday Warden
