Children Sue In Effort TO Reimburse
themselves for Losses.
Claiming that the late Benjamin F.
Clapp, OF Yonkers. joint trustee of the
estate Of Benjamin Clapp. had misused
between $4,000 and $4,000 of their es-
tate. the grandchildren of Benjamin
Clapp have brought suit to have the
Appellate Division of the New York
Supreme Court apply $500 trust
fund belonging to the children of Ben
jamin F. Clapp toward the wiping out
Of this deficit.
The case is striking illustration of
the possibilities of loss incurred by the
naming of personal executors and
trustees, a custom fast disappearing in
Virginia. whore the trust company has
won such favor by it's guarantee
against loss.
Benjamin F. Clapp and George NJ
Clapp were named executors and trus-
tees of Benjamin Clapp. Upon the
death of Benjamin F.. Clapp II was
alleged that the estate was short be-

legacies of Benjamin Clapp was a
trust fund of $4,000 created for the
benefit of the children of Benjamin +.

OF the building for which the appli-

cornice Is concerned We did not ex-
Pect this objection to be raised. since
many of the most prominent buildings

Mr.. Mullen said that the company

will apply to Judge Crump again for
mandamus. The fight this time, he
said, Will for the first time deal with
