Peter Chouinard, who had conceived
liking for the old man and who
tried to raise a subscription for his
burial. As a result Of Chouinards
effort there came an investigation Of
Smiths identity. which revealed him
to be Dudley Jardine. the son and once
business associate of Geo. Jardine,
founder of a big organ building firm.

estate which had just been appraised

Is in securities of the highest class.
To niece and nephew Jardine left
$4,000 each, to another nephew and
to a granddaughter $10,5 each. The
residuary estate is to be divided be-
tween a number of prison and mis-
sionary associations, each Of which

eSutor awarded $1,000 to Chouinard
in return for kindnesses which he had
shown Jardine in his last days.
