Eccles of Preston, Eng- cles, by his attorneys, Willlam H. Shields and William H. Shields, took an appeal in the probate court before Judge Nelson J. Ayling on Wed- nesday to the superior court of New London county to be held on the first Tuesday of December and bonds were given by the appellant to prosecute the appeal to effect. All the papers the appeal were served on Thanksgiving day by Deputy Sheriff George H. Stanton. The appeal is taken from the probate court's decree that decided that the effect in law of the bequest in theé will of John Eccles to the Rock Nook home for children, which was errone- ously described and understood by Jokn Eccles to be a corporation, was to create a public charity and trust that might be administered by such trustee as the court of probate might appoint. The appellant, William B. Eccles, claims that the express terms of the will created no .trust and that the phraseology ‘of the will created an absolute legacy: that the Rock Nook home for children, havinb no corpor- Will to Rock Nook Home—Superior Court Will Have toDedrleonpmhuofion»ofWfllonmPoint.

Attorney General Hinman very like- v will appear representing the pub- lic interests in the questions that are to_be litigated. ‘The appeal proceedings involve di- rectly the disposition of the $50,000 legacy given to the Rock Nook home !for children and the legacy of two- thirds of the remainder of the estate amounting to about $154,000. ‘The decision in this appeal ‘thus in- volves the disposition of about $204,000. case now has reached a point where the vital issues of the legality or illegality of the so-called Nook home legacies is to be finally de- termined. In their answer before the recent probate court hearing, the Rhode Is- land Hospital Trust Co., the execu~ tors, claimed that for a long time prior to the death of John Eccles he was a member of and actively interested in the work of the United Workers and was particularly interested in the work of inistering and carrying on the RocK Nook home as provided for under the deed of Moses Pierce to the United Workers; that for many years prior thereto he had been fami- liar with the workings of this charity and with its beneficent results; that he had frequently expressed his in- tentlon of providing liberally for this charity known as the Rock Nook home, in his will; that there is no other home of this nature and description within the city of Norwich or in that vicinity, carrying on similar or like work, nor any other charity of this general nature in which John Eccles was interested at or about the time of the execution of his will or of his death, to which his bequest could nat- urally be paid. All the other bequests under the will have been paid and there remains now in the hands of the executors the sum of $282,061.86 from which the disputed logl?imes and the expenses must be pal A GROUP OF CLEVER COATS SATU&?‘AY $1250 A splendid assortment of the Coats which have distinction in every line, the prevailing weaves being chev- iots, zebelines and mixtures.
