EVENTS THE COUNTIES BORDERING FRANCISCO
LAWYERS FINISH
BUFFERS CONTEST
Long Fought Case Almost Ready
to Be Left in Hands
of Jury

OAKLAND. Sept. 29.-The attorneys
in the Buffers will contest finished
their arguments today. and the case
will go to the jury tomorrow. Long
instructions have been prepared by
both sides, which will have to be read
by Judge Wells, so that 1t is expected
that the noon hour will be reached be-
fore the jury retires to decide whether
or not Mrs. Lucia Beebe Buffers was
OF sound mind when she made her will.
M. c. Chapman closed the arguments
for the contestants, following Attor-
neys III. B. NJ. Miller, r. NJ. Fitzgerald
and Joseph Haber, who spoke on be-
half of the proponents of the will. The
opening argument for the contestants
was made by George w. Reed. The en-
tire day and part of yesterday was
spent by the attorneys in talking.
The many business transactions in
which Mrs. Buffers figured about the
time she made her will were instanced
by the upholders of the will as evidence
Iof her sanity and intelligence. The
will provides for mon thly payments to
all of Mrs Buffers children, and leaves
the residue of the estate to her young
est son, Henry A Buffers Jr. That
this was a peace offering to her hus-
band, who had deserted her, and was
made when she was out of her mind as
the result of his desertion, and in
huenced by the hope that he would re-
turn to her when he learned that she
had made will that favored the only
child she had by him, was the conten-
tion of the contestants.
Figures were shown by Attorney
Haber to rebut the theory of the con-
testants that Mrs. Buffers was so ir-
responsible that she gave away great
er income than could be procured from
her property. The entire monthly in
come, Haber said, was $1,467 includ-
ing interest on $4,000 lent by Mrs.
Buffers to her husband. The combined
monthly payments to her children and
others total only $S25.
Mrs. Buffers unusual business abil-
ity and good judgment in dealing with
men of affairs was dwelt on by Miller
and Fitzgerald. The latter said that
in providing monthly incomes for her
children instead of dividing the prop
erty outright among them was a mani
festation of her good sense.
