FARGO HEIRS TO
BRACKLIN FORTUNE
MRS. J. n. BEST AND FAMILY IN
TEREsTED IN FORTUNE WHICH
RUNS INTO THE MILLIoNs-MR.
5EsT's MOTHER WAS A RRAck-
LIN. ...

Mrs. j. H. Best and her family, of
this city, are among the heirs to the
famous Bracklin fortune of Wales,
which runs into the millions.
few evenings ago The Forum ran
a small item in the editorial columns
concerning the finding of an old Bible
in Philadelphia museum which con-
tanned the history of the Bracklin fam
lily and proofs of their rights to an i'm
mense fortune in Wales.
Mr.. Bests mother was a member of
this Bracklin family in question, and
Mrs. Best has long been familiar with
the history of the lost Bible. The BIZ
BILE, however, had been missing for
more than thirty years. When Mrs.
Best saw this item in The Forum she
Immediately clipped 1t out and sent it
to her son, who is an attorney in Bal
timore, and he will look after the in
terests of the Best family.
1t appears that one of the early heirs
to the Bracklin fortune secured pos
session of the Bible that contained the
only history of the Braclxlin family.
This heir was not a Bracklin and in
order to keep the fortune in his lire
he hid the bible. Since that time
the Bracklins have kept up an almost
continuous search for the book, which
had become precious" in more ways
than one.

The City in Brief

4 Il !. se &
The frontage to the Fargo mill at
the north bridge, Is being improved
with nice wide cement block side
walk, which the public will appreciate.
j. B. Bowman has moved his shop tc
the rear of the Dixon block in the old
Ames warehouse, until the new build
ing Is completed. Phone 590-J for fur
niture repair work.
Sec. G.. u. Wilson will start on the
rounds OF collecting copy for the inter-
state fair programme in the near fu-
ture, SO that the premium list can be
issued over the northwest.
The Louisville Courier-Journal has
the following to say In regard to David
Bispham, who will give recital In
Fargo on Tuesday evening May %.
under the auspices of the Fargo Con-
servatory Musical festival, at the First
Baptist church: with perennial
charm and never-failing art, David
Bispham made a fresh appeal to his
audience last night, and established
himself more firmly than ever I'm the
hearts of his friends. 1t is not the
voice, 1t Is not the song, II is the mu-
tual personality of the singer that wins
its way into those hearts"
An agreeable change has been made
in the perspective of the Children's
home building now that the dark lead
en- color, which has been the perturb-
able color OF the building since IL was
erected, a few years ago, has been
changed to one of white with harmon
ious trimmings. The change is Ger.
tainly more pleasing and decidedly
more consistent with the purpose of
the structure, and one which friends
and admirers will be quick to appre-
ciate. AS one good friend OF the in
stitution put 1t today, the change is
startling in its agreeable effect.
1t has been enormously reported that
the Rev. DIR. H. Hensiey Henson, can.
non of Westminster abbey, London,
England, would be in Fargo to partici-
pate in the annual convocation of the
Episcopal church of North Dakota
which is to be in session at Gethsen.

If the theory of Fargo friends Of
the late Fritz Schumm is correct, the

of deposit for $35 in Casselton bank.
1t appears that there were several
eople in Fargo we'll acquainted with
Schumm, among which is John j.
Wandmaker, who transacted all bus
mess for the man. Mr. Wandmaker
carried on all correspondence and
looked after the business affairs in
general He is Of the opinion that a
neat sum was left by Schumm.
