the census bureau respecting tM
amount and character of the incum.
brances ON their homes, according to
letter received by. The Herald from
the director of the census, who asks
the cooperation of the paper in secur,
ing this information. Two requests
have already been sent to the owners
having homes subject to mortgages
and the third one is being prepared
now. There is penalty attached
for failure to make responses to the
departments request, but the director
is loath to engorce this penalty and
assures the citizens that information

"The census bureau is, NOW in the
midst of an Investigation to ascertain

the amount of such indebtedness
Schedules of inquiry calling for this
information have been sent to all Of
the persons reported in your city as
owning homes subject to mortgage,
but unfortunately, large number Of
the citizens have not replied to the Of
fetal request. We imagine this indif'
ference on their part is due to the fact
that they do not appreciate the impOr'
lance of the statistics, and | write to
you in the hope that you will give
some publicity to the census in

given to our communications.

been sent to your citizens. A third

The law providing for this inquiry

sary to depart from it. believe that
your citizens will give more prompl

This will disposes of one of the
handsomest estates in Tennessee, con-
sisting in large part of "Graymere,"
a magnificent farm property of 1,200
acres of land and which has long been
one of the show places of Middle Ten
nessee. The son, John M. Gray, Jr,
and his grand daughters husband, Joe
b. Palmer, were appointed executors
of the will without bond. The execu-
tors were represented in the probate
of the will by Charles p. Hatcher, at
torney. The will was of comparative.
ly recent date and was witnessed by
Mr.. Gray's nephew, William P. Rid
ley, of Clifton Place. and his farm SUI
perintendent, Mr. Anderson.
There has been considerable specu-
laton as to what disposition would
be made of the great farm of Mr..
Gray's but no announcement of their
intentions with respect to it has been
given out by the owners. Unquestion
ably if it were placed on the market
it would arouse a great deal of inter
