Our City Fathers Have Early
Meeting

Alderman Rice at a recent meeting
was more emphatic than eloquent in de-
mandlng to know what had become OF
the water pipe excavated while the inn
provements to the water supply was be-
ing made. He denounced in the most
bitter terms, the extravaganza of the
Water Department. and insisted on
knowing how much was realized from
the sale of the old pipe. He referred to
a previous meeting. when an order was
passed, compelling those in charge to
give an account of the sale of the water
pipe, and to return the amount realized
to the City Treasurer
The sum of $50 was appropriated to-
wards the payment of the concrete work
leading from Church street to the City
Market.
The petition of Mr.. c. Thomas Kemp.
praying to be permitted to eXcavate on
Patrick street, under the side walk in
front of his property
The petition to change the market
hours to 6 80 a. M, was granted by a
special ordinance.
City Clerk Smith was instructed to
send letter of thanks to Mayor Preston,
of Baltimore, for allowing the policemen
from that city to come here on the day
of the visit of President Taft.
Settlement was made with E. z.
Krantz, Charles Falk, George Martz and
James o. Hooper, for the damage done
to their crops by the building of the pipe
line the past summer. Several Of the
owners OF the farms are holding out for
damages. which the city considers exces-
slve. One man is reported as wanting
$3.50, and another has talked $500 or
5000. Such claims will not be paid, and
If necessary, a jury will be called upon
to decide the damage.
The Morris Iron Company has asked
that drain or sewer be placed on East
street from Eighth street. south to near
the Economy Tank and Sllo Works
1t was explained that considerable storm
water gathers in that neighborhood. The
matter was referred to the Street Com
mlttee for investigation.
Mayor Schel stated that there is a de-
mand for shed or roof to be placed
around the outside of the market house.
He said that such roof was contem-
plated in the plans of the building, but
on account of the lack of funds it was
never erected. The matter was referred
to the Committee on Halls.
The Mayor also brought up the matter
of lease of the City Opera House. He
said that while the lease does not expire
until May Ist, 1912, yet the present
lessees, are anxious that the matter
should be settled. and the matter OF
booking for the next season is also about
starting. 1t was determined to have
meeting at very early date. at which
time the matter of again leasing the hall
will be also taken up. The intention is
at this time to have the advertisement,
which will be inserted in a number of
papers, prepared. 1t is probable that
the city will reserve several nights upon
which it may use the building. This was
not done in the last lease, and ii has
been a source of much ANNOYANCE. 1t is
also likely that the lessees will be re-
CURED to keep the hall in repair during
the lease
Other matters were discussed and the
board then adjourned.

Court of Appeals Sustains the
Decision Of the Orphans Court
in the McSherry Will Case.
in the Mesh

The McSherry will case is being holly
contested. The executor appealed from
the ruling of the local court. but the
higher court affirmed the decision and
the fight will now go on in the Circuit
Court. Chief Judge Stockbridge deliver
ed the'opinion
Judge lanes McSherry left his whole
estate to his wife, Clara L. McSherry,
for her life or widowhood, with power to
sell, and at the same time vested her
with the power to distribute the proceeds
among her children according to her
own wishes. Judge McSherry died in
October, 1907, and Mrs. McSherry died
in December, 1910. She left will de-
vsing practically all of her estate to
three of the six surviving children. A
caveat to the will was then filed in the
Orphans Court for Frederick county, by
Mrs. Bertha McSherry WimSatt. a mar
ried daughter, who was willed but a
nominal part Of the estate. To this cav
eat J. Roger McSherry, son, subse
quently became party. When the Or
phans' Court directed the transmission of
issues to the Circuit Court, William
Clinton McSherry and Caroline Spurrier
McSherry. appealed 10 the Court of APP
pealS, alleging that one OF the issues was
not in proper form to be submitted to
a jury.
The issue involved in the question
was the paper writing. dated March goth.
1910, and purporling to b. the last will
and testament of Clara l.. MCSherry,
signed by her; and was the same exc
ecuted and attested by her in due form
as required by law? The executors.
through their attorneys, Messrs. White
lock and Cross, of Baltimore, commended
that the issue was not one which should
be determined upon by jury because
it was question of law and not of fact.
The whole question was threshed out
before the Court of Appeals, Stoner and
Weinberg, of this city, representing J.
Roger McSherry and Mrs Wimsatt.
The decision just handed down af-
firms the action OF the Orphans Court
OF Frederick county. meaning that the
issue contested was in the proper form
and the case can now proceed
The estate comprises about $50, 900,
and the case has attracted a great deal
