BARS SONS FROM
FATHERS FUNERAL
S%tepmother Obeys Deathbed Ri
quest of Man Who Said Bow
Had Neglected Him. %

TRENTON, Aug. 17.-Carrying OUT
the wish of her husband, Mrs. Charles
R. Stoop, of sol South Warren street,
yesterday refused to allow her two
stepsons to attend his funeral, and the
young men were unsuccessful in their
efforts ever after they called on the
police, and later tried to see the body
in the cemetery.
Mrs. Stoop was determined to follow
out the last instructions of her hus-
band while he was on his deathbed,
where he claimed that his foul children
had neglected him during his long ILL
ness and that he did not want them to
look upon his face after he had passed
away. According to Mrs. Stoop, the
whole trouble was due to the act that
her s%tepchildren had failed to provide
for her husband, while she toiled hard
every day to try to provide him with
medicine and the necessities of life.
When Mrs. Stoop entered the house
where the dead body reposed she found
her stepsons sitting near the casket
with the many other mourners. She in
formed them of their fathers last
words and requested that they leave
the house. There was no argument,
but the young Stops walked out and
called up Captain Dettmar. They
wanted to know If he would send a po-
liceman to the house so as to allow
them the privilege of attending the
funeral. Captain Dettmar said he had
no jurisdiction in the matter and they
left. At the cemetery their request
that the casss. be opened was refused.
