Ross H. Snyder Estate
Is Placed at S43,m5;
$1,000 Left by Wife

. An estate OF $43, 300 mas Deen le1t
by the late Ross H. Snyder, Wash
ington attorney, who was shot by his
foster son, it was disclosed today
in Montgomery County Orphans
Court, Rockville.
Meanwhile, the foster son, Robert
w. Snyder, IA, is serving a life
sentence in Maryland PA7itenti-
airy, Baltimore, after being CON
victed last week of the shotgun
killing of Mr.. Snyder. The boy
who also was indicted for the Staying
of his foster mother, Mrs. Jane
Russell Snyder, and foster sister,
Jane Ann, II, may be transferred
to the State Reformatory.
An appeal was filed in Montgom-
cry County Circuit Court today by
Joseph c. Cissel, attorney for young
Snyder, for transmittal to the State
Court of Appeals. The appeal con-
tended Juvenile Court should have
had jurisdiction in the case.
Documents listing Mr.. Snyder's
estate were filed by George A. Hos
pidor, Washington attorney who
was appointed administrator.
According to Orphans Court, $780,
600 represents real estate holdings
and $13,665 personal property. Court
officials said that the real estate
was owned jointly by Mr.. and Mrs.
Snyder.
Mrs. Snyder Leaves $4,000.
Thomas c. Kelley, Rockville attor-
ney, the administrator for Mrs.
Snyder's estate. declared in his petit
ton for probate that at the time
of her death she possessed personal
property totaling about $4,000.
= Mr.. Snyder also carried $4,000 in
life insurance. A policy for $1,000
was made out jointly to his foster
children.
Regarding the legality of the
convicted boy receiving any part
of the estate, Orphans Court Judge
Charles H. Squire, said common
law considers person sentenced
for life legally dead"
He added that common law also
provides that a person cannot be
the recipient of money which would
come to him" because of murder
he committed.
Will Filed November rs.
The will, which left the entire
estate to Mrs. Snyder, was filed
November rs, 1916, three days after
the Sayings.
Mr.. Hospidor explained that there
can be no settlement of the estate
until defense counsel for the boy
decides whether to appeal his con-
viction.
Mr.. Hospidor said the legal ques-
ton of whether Mr.. or Mrs. Snyder
died first might not be stumbling
block. He believes that the rela-
tives of both families may agree to
arbitration.
Mrs. Snyder left no will.
