suit on file in circuit court here at

none received requests under the

Defendants include j. S. and J. M.
McFaddin, executors of the will;
the Methodist hospital and Deacon
ness home, indianapolis; Union hos
pital, Terre Haute; Allie Mcdaniel,
the Rockville National bank, Blake
cemetery trustees, board of the

Allie Mcdaniel, one of the de-
PENDANTS, was employed for many
years in the Aydelott home. She
was bequeathed one of the most pre-
tentiouS residences in Rockville with
its furnishings, including valuable
Persian rugs. In addition, she re-

did SO at time when he was in
