Rutland represents the Vail estate.
Another interesting case against the
Vail estate has just been settled by
the reopening of the commission to
allow the claim against the estate by
George D Smith of New York, the
well-known dealer and collector of
rare books and costly editions, es-
pecially of European publications.
The bill in question was for $4,000

Vail just before he died. The in
voice did not arrive until after his
death and before the matter. was adj
justed, Mr. Smith died. The settle
ment was finally effected between the
executors of the two estates.
