Claim Young Woman Used

A 100000 ESTATE INVOLVED
Action Filed in Federal Court at Wich-

Robnette.

Claiming that Katherine Weir, a
young woman of Greensburg, Kan,
exerted undue influence over S. ID.
Robinette, wealthy bachelor, to get
his money, sisters of Robinette have
sued in the federal court at Wichita TO
break his will and obtain his 100000
estate. 1t is alleged that Miss Weir
employed a lawyer of Wichita to visit
the bachelor at a Hutchinson hospital
to induce and procure the deceased
to make will in her favor"
The sisters, Sallie ]. Robinette of
Denver; Florence 'Robinette and Rose
Zimmerman of Indiana and brother,
George Robinette of Indiana, were left
not more than s17,50O altogether by
the will, and this finally dwindled to
$4,000 for each of the first two sisters
and $1,000 each for Rose Zimmerman
and George Robnette, or total of
$4,000. -
Mr. Robinette, who owned land,
bonds, bank stock and considerable
cash, died in a hospital at Hutchinson
last August
Following the death, two of the
sisters, Florence and Sallie Robinette,
came to Kansas and were at Green's
burg when will witnessed by Post
master Sam S. Graybill of Hutchinson
and A. e. Asher was probated Miss
Weir and her attorney asked the sis
tiers to compromise on the estate, they
allege, representing that the estate
was not worth more than $4,000
1.-THE defendant, Katherine Weir,
represented that she had been the
common law wife of the deceased and
that if an attempt was made to set
the will aside she would claim all OF
the estate as the wife of the de-

formal words of the suit.
The will of Robinette bequeathed,
Miss Weir 101 shares in the Home
State bank of Greensburg, the "old
court house corner" at Greensburg to
be her home for life and placed most
of the remaining property to the
banks credit.
