Another Novel Angle
Enters Court Battle
Estate of Lawrence Atchison to Take Appeal to State
Supreme Tribunal, Protesting McEvOy's Order

An appeal to the state supreme
court of errors in Hartford will be
taken by the estate of the late
Lawrence Atchison of Middlebury
which was ordered yesterday by
Superior Court Judge Frank p Nc
Evoy to pay $3.50 for counsel fees
for Margaret and Alden Atchison
in their fight to share their fathers
estate.
The appeal by the estate will
come in the midst of the children's
appeal to the high court, thereby
adding another novel angle to tine
long drawn out battle for the 500 900
estate.
Attorney John H Cassidy, coun-
sci for Lawrence Lewis, executor
of the Atchison will, said the order
of Judge McEvoy will be protested
on the ground there Is no legal
precedent for such payment and
that the statute on which the order
was based does not apply in the
will case.
Legal circles here are said to have
deep interest in the outcome of
the proceedings in that no other
case has come up here in recent
years in which persons who fight
against an estate are allowed a sum
of money from the estate to carry
on their battle. No other decision
on such appeal for funds for pro-
lection has been forthcoming here
although small counsel fees have
been provided regularly in divorce
actions when needs have been
proven.
The protest move by the estate
involves another unusual angle in
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1943-12-21

that it will be an appeal from a
court order and not from a regular
court decision. Several other such
cases of supreme court appeal
based on an order have occurred
i'll the state but none in Water
bury in recent years, it has been
pointed out.
The will litigation started when
the two children, who were left
$100 each. appealed from probate
court to superior court. Last April
8 a jury found the issues In their
favor and broke the will but on
Nov. 6 Judge McEvoy set it aside.
The children then appealed to the
hlg hcourt and asked the jurist to
issue an order providing funds so
that would be able to perfect their
fight in the Hartford court. Yes
terday'S decision came in answer to
pleas of their counsel, Attorney
Michael v. Blansfield who said the
children are without funds to pro-
tect themselves and their interests.
Pending the outcome of the ap-
peal the children are each receiving
SIS monthly from the estate for their
support. The payments-ordered re-
Gently in probate court. were retro
active to the time of their fathers
death, it has been reported.
1t is believed counsel for the
estate may bring out in his appeal
proceedings reference to the lack
of hearing on the children's A.
nancial status at the time they made
the special request for appeal funds.
A hearing on the motion was con-
Quoted several weeks ago in Judge
McEvoy's chambers and yesterdays
decision was based on papers filed
and arguments present at that time.

care for others safety, nor will we
sponsor trite remarks about starting

Quite sermon could be preached
on such serious consequences. On

Christmas day, one of rejoicing to
only four occasions when traffic
fatalities were not caused by care
lessnees.
Likewise on New Years day, an
other holiday which, while not of
the same category as the feast OF
Christmas. would seem to have suf-
ficient interest in starting the new
year right to cause operators and
pedestrians to be reasonably careful,
Connecticut records show only two
occasions which were free of traffic
deaths.
Fatality figures tell their own
sctory and should cause thinking
persons to take it easy this year and
try to safeguard their own lives as
well as not to cause death to an
other"

Toughest casting problem in
Hollywood is finding actors to por-
tray corpses. The average film
player will starve to death before
he'll depict a dead man, contend
ing it would type him with cast
ing directors and mentally bury
him with his public. Other day, in
casting 1.-The Ghost Ship" at RKO,
Director Mark Robson called for
six thespians of assorted types to
portray corpses. Upwards of 100
available actors refused the roles.
Finally the casting office resur-
rected an actor who agreed to play
all six corpses. The actor, Ben
jamin Morehouse, wryly remarked
