CLARKS0N IS HELD
AS FORCER OF WILL
Relatives of Dead Wife Testify
That Signature Is
Not Hers.

Howard G. Clarkson. charged with
forging the signature OF his wife to a will
by which he was made the &ele bene-
f1ciary Of an estate valued at $1,000. was
given a preliminary hearing before Judge
Mullowny in Police Court this morning
and held in 81 900 bond for the action of
the grand jury.
The governments witnesses, Frank NJ.
Howard and Jennie NJ Howard, brother
and sister of the defendants deceased
wife, testified that the signature affixed
to the alleged will was a poorly executed
forgery. - Other testimony was to the ef-
feet that the. signatures of three wit
nesses to the will were obtained by the
defendant several days after his wife's
death ..
The prosecution has grown out Of the
refusal Of Judge Ashley NJ. Gould. sitting
in the Probate Court to admit the al
legged will to probate. After hearing tes-
timony regarding the WILL Judge Gould
advised those interested in Mrs. Clark
sons estate to confer with Assistant
United States Attorney Ralph Given.
The warrant was issued at the insistence
Of Frank M. Howard.
Mrs. --nnie Clarkson, wife of the de-
fendant. died about seven months ago fol-
lowing a surgical operation. According to
Clarkson's story, a day or SO before her
death the will in question was drawn up
and signed by her. He entered an en-
phatic denial Of the charge of forgery.
Attorneys for the defense fought the
holding of the defendant for the grand
jury upon the ground that as the sigma
lures of the witnesses to the will were
obtained after death, the paper was in
valid, and. even If CIarkson did sign his
wife's name to the paper. there was no
crime committed.
The accused failed to furnish the neces-
sary bond and was committed to Jail.
