specialized on that branch OF law

years with Albion u. Man, himself q

NEPHEW'S COUNSEL
SCOFFSAT CHARGE
OF NORD|CA FRAUD
Says Letters Offered in viii
Contest Are in Prima
Donna'S Own Hand.

Emile Dreyfus 81 the law firm Of
Weed. Henry & Meyers. attorneys for
Robert 3. Baldwin. nephew OF the late
Nine. Lillian Nordica and executor Of
tho Will It In alleged she executed on
Thursday Island shortly before her
death. to-day made light Of the charge
Of Bainbridge Colby. attorney for tho
prima donna's husband. George w.
Young. that the supposed Nordica
letters In Baldwin's possession arc
'concocted and fraudulent"
when Mr.. Young's attorney at
tempts to attack the genuineness Of
the letters we have" said Dreyfus.
'he forgets that when we served him
with tho complaint TO which tho let
tsrs wers once attached wa offered
TO show him the original letters"
The original letters. Dreyfus says,
are all In Nine. Nordica's hand and
| Of unauestioned authorship. In this
respect they arc unlike some OF the
typewriter letters Young claims to
have received from his wife about
the same time and which he made
public In part In an EFFORT to prove
she expressed love for him up 10 the
time Of her death.
Mr.. Young. Of course. knows his
own wtfc's handwriting" Dreyfus
continued. In view OF that fact, we
were surprised that his attorney did
| not avail himself OF our offer to OK
hibit the original letters before he
characterized them AZ fraudulent.
| I'VE agree that the letters Nine
Nordica wrote to her sisters were nj
variance with those she wrote to her
husband at the same time. II is on
| that very variance that we rely "a
prove that she had a Disagreement,
with him.
| "She felt ne had used her money
and that II was to her best interest
until she got IL back. to appear to be
friendly with him. Hut, as is shown
plainly by our letters. she was doing
her best to get away from him."
| Dreyfus says this was the prima
donna's attitude when she became III
after the shipwreck. and that IL was
only natural when she made her new
| Will for her to express her real feel
ings. Before her illness. Dreyfus says,
Nine. Nordica had said she was going
| to make another Will and cut OF her
| husband with only the amount he had
borrowed from her.
Briefs In support OF tho motions
made yesterday before Supreme
Court Justice Lehman will not be
ready until Monday. In tho mean
time Dreyfus will continue his fight
