LETTERS OF WALTER SCOTT
They Were to an Old Friend and are
About TO Be Sold in London

The sale Of the correspondence OF
Sir Walter Scott with John Wilson
Croker, one of his Oldest friends is
announced by Sothebys of London.
It consists OF a series of seventy-nine
autograph letters covering about $50
pages and written between the years
1909 and 1881. These letters with
others were bequeathed by Croker's
widow to her nephews and executors,
Follett Pencil and the Rev. George
Stanton Barrow, by whom they are
now dispersed at auction.
In the first letter of the series on
November %, 1909 Scott praises Gro
ker's THE Battle of Talavera." Il
had already read" Scott says, with
the greatest pleasure your high-spir-
tied and martial effusion in honor OF
Sir Arthur. Duke of Wellington and
the chivalry of Talavera but am
not the less sensib of your extreme
kindness in sehding me a copy ex
dono. | have made some progress in
reviewing 1t for the Quarterly amid
such snatches of leisure as my pres
ent very busy state affords me. For
am just now sort of triple Hecate,
or, rather, kind of Cerberus as clerk
to court of session, clerk to the judi
cature commission, and bard and edi-
tor in my private capacity"
A little later Scott writes regard
ing Wellington's position in the Pen
insula: God grant his hand may
not be crippled in the great contest
he has hitherto maintained, with such
consummate skill and undaunted per-
severance. The recall of his army
would be quenching the smoking fax
of Continental liberty with venge-
ance."
In another letter. he begs Croker
to take charge of the first copy of
collection of Scottish music, intended
for presentation TO the Prince Regent
Il am afraid there will be no time to
get it bound, as the workmen here
are most intolerably lazy. But the
Prince will perhaps deign to receive

MRS. EDDYs WILL
Talk Of Contest in Home Town Of
George Clover

0CSfSo 0toNcA
Lead, S. D., Dec. 9-There is talk
here in the home town of George Clio
yer, the only son of Mrs. Mary Baker
Glover Eddy, of a probable contest
of the dead Christian Science leaders
will on behalf OF Glover's children.
Since the settlement of his famous
Next Friend" suit against Calvin A.
Frye and others, whom he charged
with willfully influencing Mrs. Eddy,
G over has not been communicative
as TO the financial benefits received.
1t has been understood, however, that
he received in trust for his children
some $4,000.
It is now declared that in some old
| correspondence part of which was
written less than year ago by Will
liam E. Chandler, Glover's Eastern
| counsel, the implication was made in
guarded language that the settlement
then made would not hold and that
| Glovers children still had a legal
right to come in for a portion of the
estate when Mrs. Eddy died. These
letters implied that nothing could be
done until that death occurred and
were written to a local attorney then
connected with the Glover case.
Mr. Glover is in no state to dis
cuss what he intends to do about his
mothers estate" declares Mrs. Clio
yer. mr.. Glover is not in good
health" she continued. HE is sub
ject to heart trouble and the unex-
pected news of his mothers death
has completely unnerved him; in fact
he should not have made the trip east
at this time. But for the fact that
we are remodeling our home / should
have accompanied him east, but ex-
pect to join him later"
The home mentioned is the $4,000
domicile given Mr.. Glover by his
mother some years ago. It is plainly
furnished and In it the Glover family
has lived simply. Mr.. Glover himself
is almost always attired in rough
clothes and long mining cowhide
boots. For many years he has fol-
lowed the life of prospector and has
some good mining ground in this sec
! ton He Is not a believer in Chris
| tian Science or a member of any
church but has never criticised his
mothers beliefs, though he has fire.
quently publicly expressed the opin-
ion that she was not in full posses.
sion of her mental faculties and had
not been for many years.
Two years ago, when the settle
ment of his suit was announced, Clio
yer steadily declined to give out par
ticulars beyond saying that the suit
was settled. After his return from
the East he paid many outstanding
bills and opened up a small candy
store on Main street in this city al
which he is now making a fair living
He still takes an active interest in
mining and developing his ground.
Glover is eccentric and unusually
determined in his views. He rules
his family with kindly but firm hand
and his word is law He has rarely
been without some litigation in the
local courts. Even his local attorney
sued him for fees in the Mex
& Friend" case This last suit was con
promised by Glover.

CHANLER ANTE
 NUPTIAL CONTRACT
 GIVES EVERYTHING
Special from United Press. )

New York, Sept. 16-Attorneys for Madame Lima Cavalieri Chanler filed in the office of the New York regis trar today the now famous pre-nuptia1 agreement exacted from Robert w. Chanler, the New York millionaire, be- fore his acceptance as a husband by terms of the document the grandson of John Jacob Astor made over to his bride practically all of his earthly pos sessions. She in turn temporarily placed the property in her husband s hands in order that he might act as her agent and in consideration of her leaving the property to his manage antee of $20,000 a year to be paid in quarterly installments of s5. 900 each.
 The agreement is one of the most iron clad documents ever filed in New York court of record. It makes four big typewritten books and appar- ently was drawn with great care. Under it's provisions not only is the designated realty of Chanler turned over to his wife but she is given an iron clad first lien on all of his be- longings of every character to ensure the payment of her $20 0GO a year.
 That there will be the liveliest kind of legal battle for the fortune is cer- tain By filing the transfer with the local registrar Cava1ieri draws first blood. Her next action will be, its is believed. to apply for an injunction tieing up all of the Chanler property under the terms of the transfer.
 By having the transfer sworn to be- fore the deputy consul general in Paris both parties acknowledging that thereafter the property laws of sidered as applying to the case, Cav alieri gained strong startagetica1 advantage at the outset. To set the transfer aside Chanler will be com pelled to prove fraud and the very nature of the agreement would seem to preclude his doing so.
 Tn the opening paragraph after de- scribing the parties to the agreement, it is set forth that the reason for the agreement is that, owing to their different natfonalties a doubt might exist as to the law governing their mutual property rights in the absence of formals relations and ''it is desir- able to remove such doubts.''
 The agreement then sets forth in marriage the lawskof New York State shall be considered as applying to both the Chan1er and Cavalier proper
 CavaIiero fled with the agreem ent a power of attorney whereby Cham Ter was to collect all of the rent, ad- minister the estate, pay taxes, etc.
 If, however, he was unable to col lect- these. $20,00O from the property held for him in trust then he, by the agreem ent. gives Cavalferi the power to collect from the New York Fife Insurance & Trust Company and the Union Trust Company both of New LOTk SlLy, alI 1IiONeyS LLlIiL II1Siyn !O3 due to him from any source whatso- ever sufficient to make up the defi- ciency
 ChanIer also agreed to, pay any transfer, or other recording tax and all expenses whatsoever which may become due in connection with the transfer of his entire fortune to the Italian singer
 As an evidence that the agreement is legal it was sworn to by all of tho parties concerned before Hansen c | EnNy f7 aH1fx I-a1 rNF United States at Paris. The agree ment is dated May S1, 1910.
