WILL SAVED FROM VAULT
Document Made by John A. Singer in
1905 Produced in Contest.

Whether it was wonderful foresight or
Just blind chance. the fact Is that one i'm
portant document was saved from the ruins
of the Mercantile Safe Deposit vaults in
the Equitable Building by the action OF
John Brooks Leavitt, a lawyer, who went
there on Monday and took It ont Of a box
In the vault. The document was a will
made by John a. Singer, son OF the founder
of the Singer sewing machine, over whose
estate there has been an action on trial for
the last week before Surrogate Cohalan.
The action is q contest brought by son
and a daughter OF Mr.. Singer TO set aside
his will of 19ll which did not leave them
any part OF the estate. To show that Mr..
Singer felt the same about the disposition
of his property as far back as 1905. Mr..
I,eavitt decided 10 produce a will that he
made in that year, which also left the chill
dren out.
Mr.. Leavitt argued yesterday that the
earlitr action of MIR. Singer refuted the
charge that ne had been unduly influenced
In the making of the will of 1911. Counsel
for the contesting son and daughter fought
against the introduction of the prior will.
