WOMAN'S RICH SECRET
IT 10 DISCOVERED WHEN HER
GRAVE is OPENED.
ELIMINATION Of Marie sigrIst's Body
In New York Reveals Bank Books
Which Were Buried With

New York.-A remarkable story OF
bow documents representing fortune
were buried with an old woman and
not discovered until her body was ex-
humed four months later has been dis
closed in the surrogate's office here.
The woman was Marie Clemence
Sigrist. who died suddenly in West
Forty-seventh street. in July. 1909
She had lived alone for years In COM
parative luxury. and at her death her
relatives were led to believe she had
been possessed OF e large fortune.
But when 1t came to collecting her ef-
fects there was nothing of value to be
found. except some old furniture,
books. and clothing. The only money
found was a few pennies. Several
nephews and nieces OF the dead wo-
man recalled she had sold valuable
property few years before she died.
They were at loss to account for
the disappearance OF the proceeds.
Edward Jacobs. lawyer, started an
investigation. with the result that an
old will. executed by Miss Sigrist In
1891. was found. At the time the will
was drawn Miss Sigrist had three sis
tiers living and she bequeathed hel
entire estate to them. The sisters
died. however. within few years, bui
no change was made in the Will. Sc
when Marie Clemence Sigrist died II
1909 her only living relatives were hel
nieces and nephews. The surrogat.
at once issued letters of administra
ton to Josephine, Sigrist and Glenn
ence M. Wedun, nieces of the deat
woman. Then the body OF Miss Sigris
was exhumed. Carefully concealed
about her neck were four bank books
showing she had $11, 200 when she
died. and other papers disclosed sh'
was the owner Of property worth thou
sands of dollars. The only explana
ton of the burial OF the bank book
and other documents Is that the under
taker either did not take the troubl'
to redress the body before 1t was In
TERED or that II this was done. tn
undertaken overlooked them. The fac
remains that the nieces and nephew
of the dead woman have come into
fortune that would probably neve
have been discovered had their aunt
body not been exhumed-
