CONTEST OVER A WILL
Children of John n. Wright Object
to Their Sister as Executrix

Children of John n. Wright Object
to Their Sister as Executrix
Under the will of the late John N.
Wright, farmer near Seaford. who
died recently, at the age of 92 years,
his daughter, Miss May Wright, who
had kept house for him for many
years since the death Of his wife. was
named executrix. The other children
employed T. Allen Goldsborough. of
Denton, Md, to represent them in con-
testing the will alleging that owing
to the infiTmities of mind and body.
Mr.. Wright'had been unduly infuenc-
ed in making his will. Mr.. Goldsbor-
ough associated with him in the case
States Attorney E. Stengle Marine,
Cambridge, Md, and a protest was
filed with the Orphans Court of Dor
chester county against the issuing of
letters on the estate to Miss Wright
pending a trial of a suit which has
been brought to upset the will.
Miss Wright was represented by
Fletcher & Jones and Harrington.
Harrington & Wallace, of Cambridge,
Md, and the case came up before
Judge Griffith in the Circuit Court.
During the recess for lunch the at
torneys and their clients reached an
agreement which was later ratified
by the court, whereby Attorney
Frederick H. Fletcher, of counsel for
Miss Wright, and T. Allen Colds
borough, of counsel for the contest
ants, should serve as administrators
lending the trial of the will case,
which will likely come up at the
November term of the Circuit
Court. Mr.. Wright's estate is valued
at $225,OOO.

AUTOS IN STATE NEAR 10000.
About One-Third Registered Are in
Wilmington

A recent investigation of the motor
license records of the State reports
that something under third of these
are issued to registrants from Will
mngton; proportion which makes a
total of Wilmington owned machines
sufficiently important, but neverthe-
less considerable under the rough es-
Innate which has been formed bv
those who interested themselves in the
matter without actual figuring. The
exact figures given for 1919 show
that 1874 out of the 1914 registra-
tons We're by Wilmington owners.
The inclusion of nearby suburbs would
undoubtedly send the number up to
possibly a fifty-ffty basis. The fig
ures for the first six months of 1920.
however shows an increase both. for
the total and the partial figures. The
increase of Wilmington owners regis
tered was SAT over the 1919 total, or
5,301.
That Delaware automobile owners
paid into the State Treasury in regis
tratiOn and license revenues more
than much larger numbers of owners
in other states paid is evident from
the figures appearing in "Public
Roads" This amounted to SIPS as
the average for each vehicle register
ed. In only five other states of the
Union was this return, based on the
number of motor vehicles, so high.
Those States were Idaho, Maryland,
New Jersey, Vermont and West Vir-
ginia. Based on population, the aver
age of one auto to every 13 persons is
slightly greater than the average for
the entire country, which is one to IA
persons. Twenty-eight states, how
ever, have averages less than Della
ware. If all the motor vehicles in the
State were to be running on the roads
at one time, there would be five to
every mile of road.

dazed by the fall He arose to his
feet, stumbled and fell off tie hli1ke
INTO the river, striking the water (only
about two feet deep) on his head. His
father jumped after him and rescued
him uninjured- Fortunately the bed
o fthe river where he fell is soft sand,
otherwise he undoubtedly would have
been injured seriously.

OIL DRILLING OUTFIT
ORDERED
First Test Wen to be Sunk on
Wood Ranch at Horseshoe
Bead.

| The location for the first test well
to be put down by the Idaho Oil and
Gas Company in their quest for oil
was definitely located Friday on the
Tom Wood ranch about three miles
northeast OF Horseshoe Bend. A
standard drilling rig has been ordered
and the work Of ascertainin1 what
Mother Earth has concealed m her in
nards will commence upon the arrival
OF the machinery and win be prosecut-
ed diligently.
The location for the well was decid-
ed upon by l. K Rose, an oil expert of
Wyoming, after survey of the terri
tory. In the party which accompanied
him were C. A. Glougie and 8. Silan,
officials Of the company from Nam
pa, John McNish of Emmett and II. G.
Murphy, field leasemAn for the com
pany.
Mr.. Rose was very optimistic over
the indications of oil IN that section.
1t is underlaid with coal deposits, and
as the site selected for the first well
is In the center of m immense basin.
Mr.. Rose, as well as the members of
the company, decided that if there Is
oil IN that section that that is the logi-
cal place to find it in quantities. The
field is very similar to many produc-
ng fields in other oil producing states,
both in geological formation and con-
tour. The results of the efforts of the
company will be watched with eager
ness

experienced oil man, has been employ
