Clark 8 Brainerd’s DRUG STORE the richest, freshest C.DAILEY IS SCOTT’S DAUGHTER Lively Contest - Possible Before Chashire Man’s Estate is Settled. Cheshire, May 7.—A fine little fight is likely before the estate of the late Walter Scott, the famous Cheshire Inn keeper, is settled. Already Mr. Scott's relatives are disputing the claim of Mrs. Walter C. Dailey o? Cheshire that she.is.the daughter of Mr. Scott, by his first marriage. Mr. Dailey has told a reporter that should the Scott heirs make this claim there will be a contest and that it will be an easy matter for Mrs, Dailey to prove her identity. “If the Scott hears make this claim’ said Mr. Dailey, ““we are prepared to contest it. We ask no odds of any of them but we do claim that Mrs. Dailey is his daughter, and that we can easily | prove it, for the nurse-who attended the first Mrs. Scott is living right here in Cheshire and can testify to the facts.” Lulu Only Daughter. A well known Waterbury man, who said he was speaking for the second Mrs, Scott, the widow, says that Mrs, Dailey was not a daughter, and that Mr. Scott’s only daughter was Lulu, & daughter by the present Mrs. Scott, who died when she was seven years of age. S “I assure you,” insfsted the speaker, “that Mrs. Dailey is not Mr. Scott's daughter. As I understand it, she is the child of Mr. Scott’s first wife, born after her second marriage, after Mr. and Mrs. Scott No. 1 had been di- vorced.” Depends on. Will, It is claimed that unless a will is found. there is bound to be“ trouble over the distribution of the Scott es- tate. If Mr. Scott left a daughter, and therg is no will, she will, of course, come in for a’'portion of the property; but if a will was made, and is pro- duced, she may be unable to get any- thing, unless by a contest in the courts in which case she will have to prove her identty, and also show undue in- fluence, or other legal grounds, for setting aside the document. One story in Cheshire is that Mr. and Mrs. . Bcott entered into a mutual agreement. some years ago, and that each at that time made a will in favor of the other. Scott’s First Wife. Bertha Todd was Walter Scotl’ first wife. She was a resident of Wol< cott.? Her daughter (the present Mrs. Dailey) was named Jennie Wal_ tina, Walter Scott and the first Mrs. Scott were divorced and later ths first Mrs. Scott” became the wfe of Louis Kahl. One child, Louis, Jr., was born to them. Mrs. Kahl died last June. Her daughter, so the mother is reported to have said, was named Jennie Waltina, on account the child’s father's name being Wal- ter. Mrs, Kahl claimed that she was paid for the support of the child, even after the divorce decree was issued, ‘and it was claimed by people who knew the family at the. time - that there was no question of the present Mrs. Dailey ‘being Mr. Scott’s daugh- ter. Mrs. Dailey has also been married twice, her first husband being a Mr. Canner, from whom, it is said, she was divorced. p Mrs. Dalley Silent. Mrs. Dailey was asked if she in. tended to clafm part of the.estate of Mr. Scott. She said she had nothing to say on the matter at pres- ent. She didn’t care to discuss the case to any extent, but Mr. Dailey was emphatic yesterday in the state- ment that his wife was Mr. Scott’s daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Dailey were among those who attended Mr. Scott’s fun- eral yesterday. Institution to Older People. Walter Scott may have been only a name in the younger generation of Waterbury and Cheshire, but Walter Scott was an institution to the older people of those places, who remem- ber him both as a baker and .as a caterer. As an innkeeper Walter Scott thought first of his guests, and then of his house, but at one time his hause gave him much concern, with expensive litigation, and also gave the property owners of Cheshire something to talk and think about. This was in the days of prominence of Samuel P. Thrasher, the heavily mustached head of the Law and Or- der league in 1896 or 1897. In those days the cellar of Walter’s hotel was well stocked with the very best vintage. But ‘unfortunately for Walter the town yent, no license and the wet goods in the cellar were bot. tled up. One day, however, M. Thrasher and his trusty agents de- scended upon the establishment and seized everything.drinkable in sight, including two bottles of whiskey which were kept upstairs. To the town hall marched the Law and Or- der league, taking the wines with them. It was a highly prized stock, and although Walter protested this did him no good, the justice con- demned the liquor to be emptied out in the streets of Cheshire. Walter appealed to the district court of Wa- terbury, where the issue was tried out! before the late Judge Arthur D. ‘Warner of Woodbury, then a judge of the common pleas court of Litch- field county, who was brought here to hear the case. Important Array of Counsel. ’ An important array of counsel ap. peared, with Lucien F. Burpee of this city, D. W. Coleman of Cheshire and Cornelius Danaher of Meriden as counsel for Mr. Scott. These attor- neys held that Mr. Scott had had the goods in his possession while license prevailed, and -that just as soon as the town went no license he boarded ',up the cellar and intended to hoid the wines until they could be legally ‘ ¢ Out-of-Town Friends 'The Suits we sell to Young Men at $15 are the hit of the season.

This claim was] ridiculed by counsel for the Law and Order league, but Judge Warner found that the wines should not have been disturbed and ordered them re- turned to Mr. Scott. The ‘officers instructed to seize the goodsg’ at the town hall’' in Cheshire were John W. McDonald, then city sheriff of Waterbury, and William M. Gillette, then messenger of the dis- trict court. ’ Residents Took Sides. The issue became so lively in Che- shire that many of the residents took sides, some standing by Mr. Scott, and others favoring the course of the Law and "Order people. It was claimed that some of the wines were missing and according to one of the inter- ested lawyers the town had to make good to Mr. Scatt to the extent ' of about $700, all of which came out of the town treasury, and therefore out of the packets of the taxpayers. This changed the feeling somewhat, and from what is now being said the Law: and Order league was ‘ never very popular in Cheshire after that. At any rate, the town went lcense | again and noe more trouble was made for Mr. Scott. *Since Mr. Scott's death there has been much talk regarding the estate— whether he died a poor man or had accumulated considerable money. It is ’known that he invested heavily in real estate and that he owned many orchards from which he derived con- siderable revenue. His orchards were his delight and he spent as much time in them as he could spare from his hotel business. MONUMENT ERECTED | TO FRENCH SOLDIERS Reservists of Engineering Corps Necar Meux Place Memorial on Field to Men Who Died in France. Paris, April 30.—The first general moment reised to the memory of sol- diers fallen in battle has just been completed by reservists of the engi- neering corps near Meux. It is a truncated pyramid of stone and ce- ment on a macadam foundation bor_ dered with a mosaic of broken stone. It bears on a marble slab in front, this inscription in red letters: “To the memory of the soldiers of the army of Paris who died up- on the battlefield of the Orucq, September, 1914.” Another marble slab bears Hugo's lines: “Glory to our eternal France; Glory to those who died for her.” The monument stands on the ex- treme edge of the field where was fought the battle that turned the tide in favor of the Allies, and made possi- ble the victory of the Marne.
