-ence to investment in any other secIr-
tiles. Mr.. Williams came here nineteen
years ago and became connected with
the bank. He has been a member of
the elevator and lumber companies ever
since their organization. He better
than any other knew the value of stock
in any of the companies. The fact that
he would advise in his will the invest
ment of his life insurance in those bust
ness ventures in preference to any
other securities, speaks volumes for
the confidence he reposes in his ,busi-
ness acccciates and the future success
he believes in store for all the institu-
tons with which he had been connected
as stakeholder during his life.

The 18th day Of September, 1910, al
the same court room has been fixed by
Judge Duggan as the time and place
of proving the will and the issuing OF
letters testamentary to Mrs. Kittie A.
Williams and A. T. Cooper.
Mrs. Williams is at present at the
home of her parents in Clyde, New
York, and will probably remain there
until some time late during the coming
summer. Mr.. and Mrs. w. B. Stevens
will live in the Williams residence anc
look after it until Mrs. Williams and
the children return.
The reader will see that while Mr..
Williams provided for those dependent
upon him in his will, he also attempted
to perpetuate those businesses and the
institutions which had been his pride
and his joy as we'll as his ambition from
the time he took up his mfe's work as
man.

THE John Williams Estate.

Ever since his demise there have been
many rumors as TO how the late john
Williams disposed of his property, and
everybody seems much interested and In
a most friendly manner, so we have
attempted to find the facts as nearly as
possible for our readers. The will has moi
as yet been probated, but we have
gained the following information from
what we, consider as reliable sources;
Mr.. Williams left all of his property,
both real and personal of all descrip'
ton, his interest in the bank, the lum-
Der company, the elevators and his life
insurance so that eventually all viii.
accrue to the benefit of his wife anc
children.
The handsome new home in this city
and all the personal property were left
direct to Mrs. Williams.
Mr.JWilliams provided in his will that
all his interests in the lumber yards,
the elevators and the bank are left to
A. T., Cooper in trust for twenty-five
years. at the end of which time al
shall revert back to the estate.
Mr.. Williams was carrying at the
time of his death one hundred thousand
dollars in life insurance. A part of this
is written payable direct to Mrs. Will
liams, and part to each of the chill
dren, Mercedes l.. and John Norman,
and part to the estate
With regard to that part of his insur-
ance which was left to the estate, Mr..
Williamsyprovided in his will that such
sums should be turned over to A. L.
Cooper in trust for twenty-five years.
He provided further, that the insurance
money which went to the estate should
be used inthe business of the elevators,
the lumber yards or the bank in pref
,erence to any outside investment.
The will provides that Mrs. Kittie A.
Williams and A. T. Cooper act as joint
executors of the will. The deceased
also requested that Mrs. Kittie A. Will
lliams and A. T. Cooper act as guard,
ians of the minor children.
During his life Mr.. Williams was
always considered one of Webster's
most careful business men. He was
,one of the most thorough and was
never hasty in his judgment. In dis
posing of his estate it will be seen that
he has provided amply for each and
every member of his family and has
also placed that which he had accumu-
lated during his lifesso that it will &c
on making money for them until such
time as his childrenfha reached their
majority. One very noticeable feature
of the will is that portion which pro.
vides that the money which goes to his
estate from his life insurance shall be
used in the business of the elevators,
thelumber yards and the bank in prefer.
