Grand Forks, N. D., Oct. IA total
Of 162 packages marked as exhibits,
are a result Of couple Of days work
in investigating the affairs Of John
Hemstead, the Emerado bank cashier,
who committed suicide last week.
These packages are in the possession Of
Special Administrator J. q. Hatcher
and were filed after a thorough inves-
tigation Of the contents. among the
effects of the deceased disclosed by
the investigation yesterday were prom
issory notes made payable to Henstead
which reached a total Of 5000. An in
surance policy in the Northwestern
Mutual in the amount OF 81 1000, payable
to the estate of the deceased, was also
found Script emitting Hampstead to
quarter section of Canadian land
was among his effects. Papers found
indicated that the deceased owned a
quarter section Of land in Roseau
county, MINI. It also appeared that
he had an interest in the light plant
at Walnut, Ill. 1t is figured that the
equity Of the deceased in a half section
IN Grand Forks county decided to his
wife on the day before he shot himself
is worth between $1,000 and $4,000.
There is a mortgage of $500 on it, A
tract in Williams county should be
worth $4,000. The value of the papers
already mentioned is problematical.
The Northern Trust Co. is hopeful that
the amount realized will be sufficient
to nearly If not quite. cover the amount
of the mortgages Of the deceased in
his several interests.
From papers in the possession of
the deceased, 1t appears that he had
a good deal Of worry over his auto
mobile agency at Rugby.
Bank Not Looted.
Developments yesterday failed to
show that the state bank Of Emerald
had been looted by Hemstead. 1t was
stated that 1t did not seem probable
that the shortage Of the Farmers Ele-
vater company would be over $4,000
If the estate pays anything like ade-
quate returns 1t is believed that there
will be something left for the widow
and family of the deceased after al
the debts are Hquidated.

here to look after matters, left fol
