$24, 800 Claim Sets Record
Here,

Filing claim of $24, 800 against his
fathers estate, Thomas c. Hays of En-
mitsburg, this county came near setting
a record for single claim filed against
an estate IN the Orphans Court for
Frederick county, if not making rec
ord. AT least no attorneys have been
found here who know of any larger
claim and casual search of the records
of the Office for nearly two decades show
that no claim even approaching it IN mag
nitude was ever filed here.
The fathers name was James T.
Hays, and the son alleges that he aud
his father were in partnership in the tin,
stove and plumbing business. The
amount of the claim, it is understood,
represents the profits accruing from the
business for long term of years.
James T. Hays, the father, died in
April 1912, and he LETT no will. Follow
ing his death, his son. Thomas c.
Hays, was appointed administrator, and
the son came into court and showed as
sets amounting to about $4,000. On
March 24th, 1914 he filed an order in
the Orphans Court the claim for $24,-
500
