Gently at Ashland City and the Meth
odist Hospital is to receive half of the
estate, which is valued at about S15,-

Mr. Weakley was a devout member
Of the Methodist church, and his great
beneficence is very much appreciated
by members of that denomination all
of whom feel deep interest in the
success of the undertaking to erect a
hospital in the city of Nashville which
shall be connected with the church.
Mrs. Weakley died about year ago
and there are no direct heirs to the
property, the remainder of which will
be divided among near relatives of
the deceased.
Rev. A. E. Clement, who has de-
voted all of his time to the raising of

TAXATION OF FUNDS

cITY's RIGHT TO ASSESS PROP

INTERESTING CASE BEFORE JUDGE
Involves Question of Whether or Not
Place of Residence of Officer or
Owner of Estate so Held Should
Determine its Situs.

The right of the city to collect taxes
on personal property now in the pos
session of the Clerk and Master, was
threshed out in recorders court Thurs
day morning, when ]. H. Dining and
W. j. fowler, representing the H. G.
Kittrell estate and the city, respec.
lively, argued regarding the assess
ment of $4,000 now held by A. N.
Akin.
| The facts in the case, as submitted
by the attorneys, are that certain les
sees put up a $4,000 forfeit to guaran-
tee the fulfllment of a phosphate
mining contract, which does not ex-
pire until 1911. 1t was provided in
the contract that the funds were to
be used as advance payment on the
last 10000 tons of phosphate, in the
event that the contract was fulfilled,
or was to revert to the Kittrell estate
as forfeit in the event that it was
not carried out. The money is now
in the possession of Clerk and Master
Akin, and was given in by
him for assessment from the
Ninth district 1t was claimed by
the city that Mr.. Akin held the funds
by the right of a trustee and not by
right of his Office
The city contended that the funds |
should have been given in by Mr.. Akin |
for municipal taxation, in that his |
situs, or residence, is within the cor
porate limits of the city, and not from
the Ninth district The defendants
commended that the property should
have been rightfully assessed from
the Seventh district, where Mrs. H. G..
Kittrell, ADMINISTRATIVE resides, but
that the estate had lost none of its
rights in the case by the assessment
in the Ninth district
Mr. Dining, in his argument, stated
that he had searched every encyclo-
pedia at his command, and had care
fully looked over all the court decis-
sions, including the decisions of the
United States court, and that he had
