REGARD FOR HEROES WISHES
Judge Nstsrsr OF Seattle Holds Re-
quest Of Soldier Killed In War
Demands First Consideration.

Is the last wish of a soldier dying
On the field of battle more to be re-
spected than legal forms decked out
with sealing wax? The American
Legion thinks IL is. Recent cases be-
fore the courts have brought the ques-
don TO the front. According to Federal
Judge Neterer of Seattle, the wish OF
4 soldier killed In battle is higher law
han any departmental regulation. Ac-
cording TO this decision Agnes Claffy,
sixteen-year old niece of Clarence
Swank, is awarded the residue of
Swank's estate, amounting TO $4,000.
Swank was killed In France. Depart
mental red tape cluttered up the case
on of the death of Swank's
mother, the original beneficiary. In
handing down his decision Judge
Neterer cited precedents extending
back to-the days of Caesar and the
legionnaires Of ancient Rome.
The latest Ease is that Of Miss
Elenore II. Knapp of New York. whose
claim To the estate of Ernest Charl-
ton Mason of the One Hundred and
Sixth United States infantry has been
contested by Mason's uncle. In a
muddy dugout before a general adj
vance against the Germans, Mason
told his buddle, Oscar westgate. the
story of his engagement, and added
that he now felt that In this advance
he was slated TO ''go West" IF |
don't come through this he said. as
they started over the top, II want Ell
enore TO have all my estate"
Mason, among others, was cut OF
and captured by the Germans. They
were taken to the same prison camp.
For ten days, a bunkie testified. Mason
lay Ill on the ground with influenza.
Then he was taken away In an ambu-
lance and his death reported. Event
uaily a death certificate was issued
by the United States government. But
the attorneys for Mason's uncle con
tested the case TO the extent of argu-
ing that the proof OF des9h" was IN
satisfactory.
The justice of the soldiers latest
will has been upheld In startling fash
Ion by the highest courts of England
recently. An English major of In
fantry died alone In his lodgings In
London directly after the armistice.
He left no legal will. Across the front
Of a photograph OF his lance he
had hastily scrawled: "Ali to her"
