Her associations with the rich man
were said to have been very close
When he was eighty-four years of
age. she took him to Norway on a
1unketing trip, and also had him
along with hero n several journeys
out of town Just before he died. The
pair made their home in the Grenoble
Hotel The old mans relatives claim
the woman, who has posed as a char
ity worker for years, exercised an un-
due influence over him. This is the
basis of the suit to nullify Miss Smed-
leys claim to the securities. Miss
Smedley, whose appearance was thin
the Surrogate's Court the other day,
is said to have past, mad to have
been mixed up in some odd transac-
tions which furnished good copy
to the press at the time. She was
on very friendly terms with Barbara
Aub, who created a sensation by
charging young lawyer with at
tempted assault some years ago.
When she had succeeded in getting
the lawyer practically at the gates of
Sing Sing, Miss Aub craw-fished and
confessed to perjury, at the instiga-
ton of some charity-workers." On
cross-examination Miss Smedley ad-
mitted that she was what was called
"a sister to Barbara Aub." Miss
Smedley sued the famous impress
sario, Max Strakosch, in the eighties,
for damages on charge of having
attempted to reflect upon her repu-
tation, but compromised the suit for
small sum.
