TWO WILLS LEFT
BY COLONEL HFCnT
Executors Offer Later Instru-
ment in Place of the One
Already Probated
No Material Change Except
That Three Charities Are
Omitted

A second and later will left by the
late Colonel Marcus H. Hecht, presi-
dent of the Emporium, and member OF
the firm of Hecht Brothers & Co., was
discovered several days ago and yes
terday it was placed on file with the
county clerk with a petition that it be
admitted to probate Although con-
siderably shorter than the earlier will
which has already been admitted to
probate, no material change in the dis
position of the capitalists wealth is
occasioned BY it.
The more recent will follows the first
in leaving $4,000 to each of the testa-
tors four. daughters and the. residue of
the estate to his widow, Mrs. Alice
Arnold Hecht. In the earlier Will the
bequest to Mrs. Hecht was accompanied
with the injunction "in the full belief
that she will AT her death distribute
her possessions equally between our
darling children or their issue" This
is left out of the later will, no re-
striction being placed upon the widow
in the matter
The recently discovered will also
omits three charitable bequests in
cluded in the first, namely $4,000 each
TO the Fruit and Flower mission OF
San Francisco, the San Francicso kim
dergarten society and the San Fran
cisco Nursery for Homeless Children.
bequest of $4,000 to the executors
to be expended in the relief of indi-
vidual cases of deserving charity is in
both Wills The direction that no in
spection or examination of the books
of Hecht Brothers & Co. be made by
the executors, but that they accept the
statement of the surviving partners
as to the interest of the testator in
that firm. is omitted from the second
will
The will already. probated was dated
March 10, 1905, and was found by Will
liam l.. Gerstle, a son in law, in the
safe deposit vaults of the Mercantile
trust company of San Francisco. 1t
was admitted to probate July % last.
The second will is dated September Is,
1907. 1t was discovered October 13,
1909
The four children of Colonel Hecht
are Hilda Alice Gerstle, Sara Hecht
Gerstle. Grace Arnold Rothschild and
Rose Ellen Frank. The executors
named in both wills are the widow and
Mark l.. and William L. Gerstle, sons
in law, but Mrs. Hecht renounces her
right to act in favor of the other two.
Colonel Hecht died June II, 1909,
leaving an estate that has been ap-
praised at S364,753.
