Contested VIII Case.

A hearing was held last week al
Elkton in the contested will case of
the late Mrs. Caroline B. Price.
Property of the deceased had been
advertised for sale when Miss An
toinette S. Pindell, of Howard coun-
ty, by her attorneys, William T.
Warburton, Reuben D. Rogers cot
Ellicott City, and Henry A. War
burton, Esqs., offered for probate
another will of the late Mrs. Caro-
line B. Price, dated January S, 1918,
and witnessed by John Backof and
John Ramsey (colored). Misses
Mary G. and Estella Haines, filed a
caveat to the second will, alleging
that it was not properly witnessed,
that testator was not of sound and
disposing mind, and that said will
was procured by undue influence.
The Misses Haines and Miss Nellie
Clayton (of Baltimore), by their at
torneys, also filed claim to certain
personal property left to Mrs. Price
by her sister, the late Mrs. Charles
M. Ellis, for her natural life only, to
revert on her death to the legatees
of Mrs. Ellis, the Misses Haines and
Clayton.
The Attorneys in the case agreed
that the personal property, except
the articles referred to above, should
be sold by Mr.. Thackery and the pro-
ceeds held, pending the outcome OF
the litigation in the case, which will
in all probability come up before the
Circuit Court at the March term.
