Wounded has received many requests
at its headquarters, PA South street,
to know what small articles might be

terrible wounds but it destroys the
clothing of the wounded men. They
are brought from the front to the hos
pitfalls in desperate need of all kinds Of

worn out sheets and hospital clothing.

CHILDREN GET GREAT WEALTH
More Than Million and a Half Is Given
Miss Moyca Newell and Edward r.
Held in Trust for Past Nine Years.

The largest trust estate in the rec
ords of Kenosha county, was closed up
this morning when County Judge
George w. Taylor signed formal or
der allowing the final account Of the
trustees of the estate of the late
Frances G. Newell and at the same
time signed an order turning over the
residue Of the estate, amounting to
1910, 39019 to Moyca Newell and
Edward T. Newell, both of New York,
the. two surviving children.
Under the terms of the will the
property was left in trust to James III.
Hoyt and Charles G. Brown, who have
since administered the estate It was
the provision of the will that the
estate be held in trust until the son
attained the age of thirty years and
the daughter the age Of thirty-fve
years. The final account, which has
been filed by the trustees, shows that
the annual income of the estate now
reaches the high sum of $4,000 and
this annual income has been paid to
the son and daughter of Mrs. Newell
for some time, pending the final set
tlement OF the estate. Under the care
ful management of the trustees nam
ed in the will the value of the estate
has been greatly increased during
the nine years that # has been held
in trust.
It is composed entirely of personal
property. AT the time of Mrs.
NeWell's death she was the owner of
large amount of real estate, but the
final report of the trustees shows that
the value of the real estate. properly
part of the estate at this time was
9,542.04. This real estate has been
turned over to company which will
dispose of it and the deed for the
transfer Of the property has been filed
with the register of deeds. It is an
interesting fact that the report of the
trustees shows that the estate has had
practically no loss from the sale of
personal property turned over to the
trustees at the time of the death of
Mrs. Newell
The property which was turned over
to Mr.. Newell and his sister bv the
final order Of the court, is all in high
grade investments.
/ Under the will the property is d.
vided share and share alike and the
two heirs receive a share of
$1,585, 145.10 each.
Both Mr.. Newell and his sister have
made their home in New York for sew
eral years and it is understood that
with the settlement Of the BIG estate
the property will be no longer taxable
In Kenosha county. Mr.. Newell is
married and he is prominent among
the younger men of New York. Miss
Newell has q handsome home on the
Hudson and is much given to philan-
thropic work.
The settlement of the estate has been
one of the largest pieces of work to
be tuned over to the county court of
Kenosha county.
