was the daughter of the people who
had cared for her, Edna Cockrill,
known here as Mamie Lu Duncan,

court today when she found that her
real parents had long been dead.
The girl was told the truth in order
that she might claim a $1,1OO share
in the estate of her father The girls
mother died in Portland, Oregon, in
1886, as a result Of a pistol wound,
a week after her life had been in
sured for $4,000. In a dying state
ment she exonerated her husband,
saying the shooting was accidental.
Then the baby was given to an
aunt, Johanna Wall. Her father stole
the child and gave her to the Dun
cans, residing at that time in San
Francisco. Recently Cockrill died
The aunt advertised for the girl, and
her foster parents, seeing the adver-
tisement, decided it was thir duty to
claim the girls share in the estate.
