When her husband died on Feb. 12, 1913, he 1éft her $36,000, and she had a consid- erable fortune of her own. She owned the Eagle cotton mill at Bagleville With no near relatives, her partition of her estate, which has been lessened to some extent by her long illness, yvas consequently received with an unusual degree of attention. After providing for the executor to pay fuheral expenses and to erect a Sranite monument in the cemetery at Shirley, Mass., where she and her husband are buried, at an expense not exceeding $500, Mrs. Ross’ will be- queaths to her aunt, Sophia L.

Winter, of said Wil- limantic, my house and lot in Wilii- mantic, together with all the furmish- ings thereof; also my diamond pin and my emerald ring set with dlamonds.” The residue of her estate Mrs, Ross leaves to be shared equally by Ger- trude Kingman, Clara B. Peasley, An- na McCollester Lawton, Thomas H. Clarke and Edward A. Winter. Edward A. Winter is named as the executor of the will. The will was made in Hartford on May 2, 191, two months after the death of her husband, and the wit- nesses were Henry E. Church of Hert- ford, Theodore M, Maltbie of Granby and Josephine S, Bacon of Hartford. It was_sworn before Justice of the Peace William M. Maltbie, Judge of Probate James A. Shea opened the will Friday morning after he had removed it on Monday at the instance of Bdward A. Winter from the deposit box held by Mrs. Ross at the Windham National bank. Mr. and Mrs. Winter, while not relatives, had cared for Mrs. Ross during her illness and he had from her the power of at- torney. Thomas H. Clarke was the only one of the 12 heirs who was in attend- ance, but three more were represented by members of two Boston law firms.
