C. f. DORANCE DENIED
RIGHT TO LARGE ESTATE

The decision that C. F. Dorrance
was an adopted son of John Dorrance
and not a natural son, increases the
inheritance of Mrs. G. W. Edmon-
ston, of this city, one of the heirs Of
John Dorrance, wealthy Pennsylva-
mia oil man. The following report of
the reversal of a decision in a lower
court of this case is taken from the
st. Louis POST Dispatch:
Charles F. Dorrance, of Dobson,
Mo-, is not the son of Mrs. Emma
Dorrance, according to q decision fill
ed in the United States District Court
Saturday by Judge John G. Pollock,
of Kansas City, Kansas, and he there
fore is not entitled to inherit the
100000 estate Of John Dorrance,
husband Of Mrs. Emma Dorrance.
The decision was given in the suit
brought by ]. Ford Dorrance and B.
F. Dorrance Of Pennsylvania, broth
ers of John Torrance, who alleged
that Chas. F. Dorrance was an
adopted son and sought to have the
estate divided under the will of Chas.
IF. Dorrance, ST., father of John
D~orrance, which provided that the es-
tate should remain in the hands of
blood relatives forever.
Mrs. Dorrance supported Charles
F. Dorrance in the suit and testi-
fled that he was her son and testified
that John Dorrance was his father.
Testimony was first heard by Special
Master F. l.. Schofield, Of Hanni-
bal, Mo-, who decided that Charles F.
Dorrance was the son of John Dor
rance and entitled to the estate.
Exceptions were filed by the plain
tiffs and Judge Pollock's decision sus-
rtains the exceptions. He bases his
finding on the testimony of three
Kansas City physicians who were ap-
pointed with the consent of both
sides to make an examination of Mrs.
Dorrance. They testified that she
had never given birth to a child.
