WANT REAL ESTATE SOLD.
Shelby Heirs Seek Partition of the

Sale of 12S parcels of real estate be-
longing to the late Patrick H Sheehy
and Julia Sheehy and an equal division
of the proceeds thereof was sought in
a suit filed in the District Supreme
Court by Catherine T. Sheehy, Frank P
Sheehy, Agnes c. Sullivan. Stephen L.
Sheehy. Josephine Sheehy. Maurice E.
Sheehy, Josephine NJ. Sheehy and Mar
saret E. kennedy against John ].
sheehy. The parties are children of the
deceased owners.
In the bill for partition filed by At
torneys Tobriner & Graham it is alleged
that Patrick H. Sheehy. for long time
a successful wholesale grocer of this
city, owned a large quantity of real
estate in the District; that in and by
his will he devised the same to his wife,
Julia Sheehy, for life, and upon her
death to his eight children in equal
shares: that his wife having died and
the real estate not being susceptible of
partition in specie without loss. the
court is asked to order a sale thereof

fore Congress. The forces arrayed

Remember what is at stake. Your
mems chances of returning to you are
lessened If the bill fails to pass, for

discrimination between the willing and

into being by the fact that part Of the
