ton from an attorney in New York was

ford's Lane. The Maria Woodford re-
ferred to by the New York attorney
married Mr.. Mcqueen. went -, New
York and later to Paris, France, ana
there died without children. She was
an aunt Of Mrs. j. {. Willis. When
this letter was received from New York
Mr.. b. p. Willis wrote to the attorney,
who replied at once stating a large es-
tate in stocks and bonds was awaiting
the heirs, and all that is necessary to
do is to prove kindred relations.
There are two branches of the family
who are entitled to the estate, MRS.
John c. Willis and her brother, John Is.
Woodford, of Alabama, father OF the
late Percy Woodford, of this city. On
Monday, ex-Mayor Willis, Mr.. and Mrs.
b. Z. Willis and Miss Mamie Wills
spent the day at Bowling Green ana
visited the "Old mansion near there
owned by Mr.. John l.. White.
Mr.. b. 7. Willis examined the records
and found much data bearing on che
case. but it is most singular thing
that the index shows various documents
connected with the records of the Wood
ford estate, but when you turn to the
page Indicated they are either cut out
or torn out. Mr.. Willis, however.
found where the sheriff had been order
ed to pay Mary Woodford, widow OF
Gen. VIM. Woodford, a pension Tor the
wear 1887 amounting to III pounds III
shillings for year 1856, like sum Tor
1887, and where the court certified that
John T. Woodford is the heir at law OF
the late Gen. VIM. Woodford, OF Caro-
line, Va.
Ex-Mayor NJ. q. Willis says there is
a branch of the Woodford family IN
Kentucky which is still very wealthy,
and he remembers his grandmother
telling him Of a visit of one of the Ken
lucky Woodfords to Caroline many
wears before the war in a coach with
four horses and retinue of servants.
They stayed at Moss Neck with the
grandfather of the late James Parke
Corbin, whose land adjoined that OF
the Woodfords. He wore knee pants.
queue and powdered hair. He got from
his grandmother some very important
family papers, and on leaving told her
she would be later an immensely
wealthy woman. Mr.. Willis laughingiy
said that it has not materalized yet.
1t is hoped the money will yet come
this way.
