The Property Cannot Be Dis- tributed until After tho Widow's Domise. Thero waa filed tn tho office of tho Clerk of the Buprome Court at Springfeld yesterday a deels- Jon aflirming the Court's former opinion in tho caso of Eliphatet W. Biatohford and William H, Hradley, Trustees of tho Nowherry ostato, vs. Henry W. Newberry ct al., in which a rehearing wnshad at the Junuary tori, Tho Court dit not io an opinion, but almply announced that the old ono was afirmed. This wos written by Mr. Justice Sheldon, and filed June 24, 1878, ‘This reaM™_rmanco probably puts an absolute onl to the — long-continucd Atigntion over‘ the Newberry cstete, and puts an ond also to any fmmedinto hopes of tho North Sido Public Library, and to tho fond bellef of Mr. Nowherry’s nephows and nicces, that. they would be able to get their inierltance within a reasonablo period. Mr. Newberry died ‘teaving twodaughtera, By his will ho provided that, fn caso of the death of both without Issuio, then, upon tho death of his wife, tho estate should bo alyided Into two equal parts, one-half to goto tho Hbrary and tho other to tho surviving de- seondanta of his brothers and sisters. One daughter died in 1874, and another carly {1 1876, In 1877 bis nephews and nicees’ tied a Dill in the Cireuit Court hero to have the will go construed as to declure: that the division of tho estate should take plnco thon, and not be uchnyed untll Mrs. Nowberry's death. Tho chief point on which thoy relied was that, whero a fifo catnte in given to any person, and, at tho death of that person, to another, the pirate * at the denth of" that person ia at tnw equivaicnt to tho phrago “upon the fallure or termination of the catate givon to” that perso: waa made for Mrs, Nowborry by tho will. howoyer, declined to avail herself of it, and sisted tpon ber dower, which sho obtained. was claimed for tho heirs that a fallure of the estate given hor had been ocenstoned by HER REFUSAL TO ACCEPT tho terms of tho will Justa much os If sho had dled, and that, therefore, the estate aliouid be alstributed at once. The Trustecs not meroly denied tho goodness of the law points, but rl- leged, nmong other things, tha great dimeulty ‘of inaking a division,—tho fuct that tho cstate consisied toa considerable oxtent of Iand in which Mra, Newhorry hud n dower Interest, which would make It exceedingly perplexing to dlyide unas property into two equal shares, It was niso alleged that the now living relatives of Mrs. Newberry had only a contingent, and nota vested, Interest in tho estate, so that a division at the present moment might result in oprlving, of thelr shares persons rightfully one stited to them who might afterwards come into existence, For Instanco, there were at present fifteen nephews and nicecs of Mr. Newberry, and, if tha eatute wero divided now between thom into fifteen paris, it might happen that, by tho thine of the widow's death, threo of those fiftoen would have died, lenying no heirs, in which enso tha estate should bo divided into twelve and not fifteen parts. Or it might hup- pon that children would bo born entitied to in- ierit, ko that the mumber of shares into which tho estate should bo divided when tho widow died would be twenty or more. ‘The case was tried before nm. Provision Judge Williams, in the Cireult. Court, Mesers, Dexter and, SoC representing the complainants, and Isham and Lincoln the Trustees. Tho decision there was in favor of the helra, An nppeul was taken ta the Supreme Court, which hus now twico decided aginst tho helrs, affirming in each cuse the soundness of the position of the ‘Trustees that tha term surviving descendants,” used tn the will of Mr, Newherry, meant those surviving at the period of tho ‘distribution, and that that period did not arrive on 1 contingency that has: happened—viz.: tho death of the two Rosa Mars without Issue, but could not happon until tho death of tho widow. It is to bo regretted that tho Publlo Library, for which Mr. Nowherry provided, cannot bo established nt once, and these contingent heirs, nenrly all of whom aro poor, nro doubticess in- eliited to feel a littlo uncharitably towards Mrs. Newberry for living so long, and to remember hor In tholr prayers rather as 0 person whose DEATH 18 TO WE DESIRED than ono whose existence should be prolonged. it is custumury for cowagers, and aunuitants, and penatoners to live forever, or ns nearly 8008 mortality is capable of, aud it 1s hardly probable. that Birs. Nowberry will prove any exception to the rule. Jn the meanwhile, however, the es- tate, which has heen roughly. eatinated at Sh, 000,000, Is. growing Inyaluo'nll the time.
