That Wilmington is suffering from
whirlwind of discomfort that is
harmful to the community is the
opinion expressed by DR.. E W. Ryon.

Market street. Discussing the situ-
alton. he said today:

theirs Wlll-Testator's instructions
Had Been Obeyed,

Undiscovered for nearly twenty
years after his DEATH the will Of Jo'
ham Michael Muller has been offered
for probate at Baltimore by his son,
John G. A. Muller. The testator died
March 13, 1896, having made his will
on May g. 1889,
The paper, yellow and musty with
age, left all Mr. Mullers property to
his wife, Elizabeth Barbara Muller.
She died April 80, 1915, and her son
was appointed administrator Of her
estate He had known Of the exist
ence Of the will for several months
prior to his mothers DEATH but since
all the property had been enjoyed by
Mrs, Muller as her husband had de-
sired, 1t was not thought necessary
to probate the will at that time.
The son says the property will now
be divided between his two brothers
and himself, since his mother died In
testate, The exact value Of the estate
has not been determined, but It Is
made up almost entirely Of parcels of
real estate.
