He dismissed with costs the appli- cation of Mrs. Small for a declaration that her husband was dead, in order that the estate might be administered. Judge Coatsworth said no evidence had been submitted to him'to ghow that Small was dead. The court held that because of “the very bitter family feud” between Mrs. Small and Small’s sisters who opposed the application it was essential that | action be taken only on reasonably clear evidence. | The judge added that although he | Mrs. Small as a capable woman and was favorably impressed | by her evidence he felt that he ought | not at present to. decide the matter | finally and give Mrs, Small the $2,- 000,000 estate, “Men have disappeared" “and after a la appeared and it he said se of years have re- possible that this is one of thosc cases.
