his two sons, William Averill and
Roland, a boy of IA, together with
his surviving sister, Mrs. Simons,
substantially provided for with gifts
out of land and trust funds set aside
by Hartman during his lifetime.
The will is dated June 8, 1903, and
is witnessed by Charles A. Peabody,
president of the Mutual life insur-
ance company, who drew it, and c..
c. Tegethoff Peabody was Har-
mans c5ose personal friend and was
frequently a caller at Arden house
during his last illness. He relinquish-
ed law practice estimated as worth
100000 a year to assume at a small
err salary the executive direction of a
company in which Hartman was
heavily interested Tegethoff was
Harrimans personal secretary.
On Mrs. Hartman will now rest
the management If the $4,000 acres
of woodland, pasture land and fer
tile black bottoms in the Ramapo
valley and on Tower bill; the com
pletion of the great house on which
Hartman already had laVished 81
100000 without living to see it fin
ished; and those plans of public
Genefactions-parks and forest res
ervati6ns-which it is known that
Hartman cherished, though he made
no mention of them in his will
If the estate measures up to ex
pectatlon, Mrs. Hartman is the veal
thiest woman in the world. Mrs. Het
ty Green's holdings have been esti
mated at $4O,O0O,OOO, those of Mrs
Frederick CORTLAND Penfeld, who
was Anne Weightman of Philadelphia
6t $SO,OOOOOO, and those of Mrs. Rus

Hartman by making no requests
to children or relatives avoided the
large share of the enormous inherit
ance tax which under the laws o.
the state of New York would other
wise be imposed.

words, weighted each with approx.
imately $1,OOO,OOO and containing in
their entirety the last testament OF
e. H. Hartman, make his widow,
Mary Averill Hartman, one of the
wealthiest women of the world. 1t
perhaps is the briefest will on record
for the disposal of an estate of such
magnitude. All his property is left
to Mrs. Hartman.
Wall street estimates that Mrs
Hartman will inherit in reality and
personal property between $75,OOO,'
90 and $1OO,OOO,OOO. Hartman
