MILLIONAIRE'S WILL
Document Executed by the Late Norman
B. Ream Refused Inspection
Copy Of Will Has Now Been Made Public
IN New York

The will of the late Norman b.
Ream, mulli-millionaire of New York
and Thompson, has been sdmitled to
probate in the probate court for the
district Of Thompson. So much has
| been known for some time but moth
ing more. Representatives of the press
| and lawyers have endeavored to see
| the document but without success. a
great deal of interest apparently CEN
tered in how Mr.. Ream would treat
| his son, Louis NJ. Ream, whose mar.
fmge to Eleanor Pendleton, show
| girl, was contrary TO the wishes of the
father. The couple were subsequently
divorced. The son shares equally in
the estate with his brothers and sisters.
The chief clauses of the will now
made public are said to be as follows:
Mr. Ream left his wife, Caroline P.
Ream, one-third of his entire estate,
household effects and gold and silver
ware. To two sisters is left life in
come from So, 600 each, and to a
brother a life trust of S20,00
The residuary estate consisting of
