Mrs. Droop Wishes to Revoke
Former Remuneration of Interests.

FORMER Remuneration OF Interests.
Mrs. Anna A. Droop. widow of Edward
F. Droop. who shortly after the death of
her husband renowned the life interest
provided for her under his will. has asked
the District Supreme Court to allow her
to revoke her remuneration. Because a
certain provision of the will fixing the
status of the shares of the estate given
to the daughters was supposed to be
valid. Mrs. Droop preferred to take the
absolute dover estate allowed by the law
rather than the income of all the property
during her life.
The court recently declared invalid the
provision as to the daughters. and Mrs.
Droop now seeks permission to be al
lowed to take under the will. She says
that by consent she has been acting as
