bequest gives one-third interest to Mrs.
Pangle and included all and every kind
OF property Of which DR.. .Pangle died pos
sessed. II specifies that Mrs. Pangles in
terest shall only be for life, and provides
that in case Of her remarriage that all of
her interests are forfeited and revert to her

At the time the will was drawn there
were only two children, Palmetto and

any other children that may be born to
them after the date of the will shall share
alike in the two-thirds interest bequeathed
them. Mrs. Pangle is named as admfnistra-

was added confirming the original will and
naming the third child. Annetta, who was
born In the interim. This will and codicil
are witnessed by Mr.. Stewart and e. A.
Morehouse.
Acting upon the application of Attorney
Stewart, Judge Wheeler yesterday named
II. @. MCGEE administrator Of the estate
Of DIR. Pangle, fixing his bond at $1,000
Attorney Stewart, who has done all Of
DR.. Pangles business for many years and
was counsel for Mrs. Pangle in the settle
ment Of the estate, said yesterday that
the provision of the original will by which
the widow Of DR.. Pangle voluntarily sur
rendered her interest in case she married
again could not operate TO cut her out of
her right, and that whether she chose to
accept 1t under the provisions OF the will
by remaining single or elected to claim
1t under the law giving her one-third as
dover was a matter of her choice and
that she had power TO dispose of this
third as she choose. He said, however,
that under the provisions of her will she
had apparently given Mr. Hospe only one
third OF her dover right.
No Disposition to Contest.
Mr.. Stewart will today file another will
which he prepared for Mrs. Hospe about
a year ago and in which she gives all OF
her property TO her three children. This
was six months before her remarriage. He
said he thought there would be no dis
position on the part OF the heirs to con-
test their mothers privilege to will part
of the estate to her husband, and that
her wishes in regard to the guardianship
of the children would be faithfully carried
out. Mr.. Stewart said he thought there
was no question about Mrs. Hospe's abll-
ity to make a will in the condition she
was in a few hours before her death, and
the witnesses, the family physician and
the trained nurse, were competent wit
nesses.
