MRS. JULIA SANFORD
IS WHITAKER HEIR

Council Bluffs. Oct. 9.-Although
once declared dead by the court. Mrs
Julia Martha Sanford of Olympia
Wash, and Charles F. Sanford OF
Nome, Alaska, are to receive their
shares of the estate of the late Mrs
Ann E. Whitaker. Judge Woodruff
so held in decree just handed down
The court in his ruling held that
Mrs. Sanford, who appeared as wit,
ness In her own behalf at the hearing
some weeks ago, is the heir mentioned
In the Whitaker WILL and that she
also established the identity of her
son. AS q result Mrs. Sanford will re.
ceive one-half of the estate, or approx.
mately $4,000.
Attorney John NJ. Calvin Of this city
was commissioned to make the search.
With only the knowledge that Mrs.
Sanford had made her home In 81
Paso, Tex, In 1888 at his command, he
visited the border town, only to learn
that Mrs. Sanford was no longer there.
Three weeks or more were spent In
running down clues in Texas, New
Mexico, California, Utah, Idaho and
Washington, with the result that Mrs.
Sanford was finally located at Olympia.
AS soon as she was located an action
was commenced to nullify the proceed
ings which resulted in the appoint
ment of an administrator for her
estate. The case was presented to
Judge Woodruff on Sept. 10, Mrs. San
ford taking the witness stand and es-
tablishing without doubt that she was
really the daughter Of the late Mrs.
Whitaker.
Practically all Of the objections of
Mrs. Sanford to the proceedings pre-
ceding the appointment Of an admin
istrator were sustained by Judge
Woodruff.
