render next Monday his opinion in
the long pending legal battle over the
81 900 900 Robert E. Lee estate, it was
announced at the courthouse today.
Counsel for Mrs. Robert E. Lee of
this city, widow of a grandson of
the Confederate general. at the same
time said they have been advised by
opposing counsel, representing George
Boiling Lee of New York, another
grandson, that the decision of the
court will be in Mrs. Lees favor.
Reports Called premature"
Judge Brent, when queried regard
ing reports that his opinion was
against the grandson, today branded
them as premature" He refused to
discuss the matter further. Counsel
for Mr.. Lee also refused to confirm
the rumors, beyond saying that they
were "garbled."
ceived from Lees attorneys was made
by Claudian B. Northrup, who, with
John E. Laskey and James D. John
ston. represented the widow In her
fight to obtain a half interest in the
vast Lee holdings in Virginia, now
controlled by the grandson.
1--WE have been formally notified
by the firm of Barbour, Keith, Nc
Candlish & Garnett, Of counsel for
Mr.. Lee, that Judge Brent has de-
cided in favor of our client, and we
were requested to be in court next
Monday, when the formal opinion is
to be handed down." Mr.. Northrup
stated. No word has come direct
from the court to this effect, he said.
Claims Husbands Share.
Mrs. Lee, in June, 1924, instituted
suit against Mr.. Lee for half inter
est in the Lee property, claiming
that her husbands will devised upon
her his share. The controversy arose
over the construction of the will of
Gen. w. H. F'itzhugh Lee. son of
Gen. Robert f. Lee, directing that
his estate go to his widow and then
to her two sons, Robert E. and George
Boiling Lee. Mrs. Fitzhugh Lee out
lived her son, Robert, however, and
upon her death the surviving son
denied the claim Of his brothers
widow to half interest.
If the courts opinion Is in Mrs.
Lees favor, it will mean that she
will become half-owner of Ravens
worth, famous Lee estate in Fairfax
County, about II miles from Washing
ton; the white iHouse." in New
Kent County. where George Wash
ington and Martha Curtis ate their
wedding supper, and valuable busi-
