Will OF WOMAN
MURDEREDFILED
Leaves Most of Estate to
Minister Who Married
Her
HUSBAND OF 2
MONTHS MISSING

The will OF Mrs Isabella Dobson,
who was murdered last Thursday
in her bungalow at Runnemede
Highlands. N. j., and whose hus-
band, George Dobson. is missing and
being sought by the police. was filed
yesterday. According to statements
on Monday by Mrs. l.. Polan, Dover
Dobson is a bigamist. She says that
he married her daughter by her first
husband, Lille Bell, and that the
latter is now in the State Hospital
at Farnhurst as a result of brutal
treatment at the hands of Dobson.
She says there has never been a di-
vorce. Dobson married the woman
now dead. two months ago as the
result Of a newspaper matrimonial
advertisement.
New Jersey authorities have asked
the police at Dover to be on the look
out for Dobson, who is expected to
make his way back to that city
where he lived before going to New
Jersey.
III lit Will Hldtlt UubAAA 1toltA ndg
It is shown that nearly the entire es-
tate of Mrs. Dobson goes to the Rev
Robert r. Miller, who married her
to Dobson and who officiated at the
funeral services yesterday in Cam
den. He is pastor OF Mt. Calvary
Union Church at Runnemede.
The only exception was a bequesi
OF $50 to the church. The balance
of the estate is estimated to be
worth about s25O0. and includes the
bungalow where the crime was com.
mitted. and the insurance, about
$500. The will was made before the
marriage to Dobson, when the mur.
dered woman was Isabella Shields
II directs that a headstone similar
to that on the grave of her first hus
band be placed over her grave.
when Dobson married Mrs Shields
two months ago after much noto
riety he informed everybody that h'
was a widower. Throughout al
the publicity the alleged fact of hil
first marriage never came to light.
According to Mrs. Bolan. the sor
with whom Dobson disappeared from
the bungalow after the murder of th'
second wife is her grandchild. Dob
son. It Is said, also took with hin
his second wife's niece and nephew
and it is believed that so long as thu
three children are with him he can
not long escape capture.
