FIGHT ON FOR
HERM|I'S LEGACY
BROTHERS DECLARE ALLEGED
NICHOLAS INSTRUMENT A
FORGERY.

HARRISONBURG, VA. Jan. 10
The four brothers of George M.
Nicholas, the wealthy and eccentric
East Rockingham farmer. who was
mysterousiy poisoned in August, 1917,
have taken legal steps to prove that
the alleged will of the hermit is n
fraud and forgery The alleged will,
which did not turn up until year
after the death of Nicholas, leaves over
100000 of the Rockingham estate to
Miss Ella McClendon, of ST. Louis who
claims to be a former sweetheart of
the old hermit and who, as she says,
cared for him and nursed him back
to health and strength after street
car accident In the Missouri city a
number of years ago.
Judge Haas. in the Circuit court
here, has issued an injunction tenn
porarily restraining the St Louis wo-
mans lawyers from removing the al
legged will from the jurisdiction or the
Rockingham court, The Missouri law
yers will have to show cause next Fri
day why the paper should not be filed
here In court and why il should not
be examined by the four brothers
whom the court had declared the
rightful heirs OF the estate before the
strange will. written on piece OF
paper. was received by Common
wealths Attorney Harrison from an
unknown source
The Nicholas brothers say they are
anxious to hurry matters. as the
presence Of the alleged will has raised
a cloud over the title of the land and
seriously affected its market value.
They say that their brother never was
in st. Louis. probably never heard of
the woman, and they feel sure that the
will is "a colossal fraud.
The Nicholas brothers take hope
from the fact that Miss McClendon is
under a federal Indictment on the
charge of trying TO secure money
fraudulently from the estate Of man
in Nevada. This matter, which has
no connection with the Nicholas af-
fair. will come up for trial in the
Federal court at Cape Girardeau. Mo-.
In April.
The Nicholas poison mystery with
the subsequent developments, has be-
come celebrated case. Nicholas, who
was "a one-legged Confederate soldier.
