JUDGE REED DECIDES HEREDITY LAW CASE Settles Ownership of Bidwall Hotel Property at South Coventry. The first hereditary law suit to_be tried in the superior coprt in Tolland county was recently settled by Judge Joel H. Reed who tried the case dur- ing the April term of the Tolland county superior court. 5 In the opinion of many lawyers, this ivas the first hereditary law case to be tried in the state for a number of years, The siit was brought to determine the ownership of the Bidwell Hotel property in South Coventry. The claimant was Addie I. Ames, executrix of the estate of Lydia Joslin of Cov- entry and Providence. The plaintiff claimed to own the property by pur- chase from Sarah Bidwell, in 1881, mother of Charles P. Bidwell of Cov- entry, the first husband of Mrs. Jos- lin who owned the property, and at the time of death left no children. no brothers or sisters, but a wife, a mother, Sarah, and - two paternal aunts Jane Fitch, grandmother of C. N. Fitch of Rockville, and E. C. Win- chester of New London who is con- servator for Mary Clark of Windham, the daughter of Amelia Clark Wi chester. C. N. Fitch claimed one-half inter- est from his grandmother and Ma Clark claimed one-half interest from her mother. The basc of the Josiin claim was thaf she bought her moth- er's interest in the property. The pro- bate court of Coventry gave her the life use of the property and it was her claim that she now owns the property by purchase, The: defendants -claimed that on the death of Charles Bidwell his mother didn’t have any claim to the propertv but that it went to the two paternal aunts. Judee Reed decided this to he the true fact in the case and gave judgment din favor of C. N. Fitch and Mary Clark, v The lawyer for the plaintif was Thomas. J. Kellev of Wiilimantic and for the defendant were Hon. Charles Phelps snd Proseeuting Attorney Thomas F. Noore of Rockville.

In view of the world shortage, we trust you will make a most careful use of the supply you have secured. “The available supply of sugar makes it necessary to limit our con- sumption to three pounds per person per month and the situation will be materially assisted if householders will Imit their purchases to small amounts. We feel your own conscience must indicate to you whether or not you are depriving others of their sup- ply by accumulating more than you reasonably need. The technical charge of hoarding may be brought in cases whare more than a thirty days’' sup- ply has been accumulated. “ROBERT SCOVILLE, “Federal Food Administrator, “Hartford, Conn.” The new canning certificates have a positive sales limifation of = 15 pounds for any one canning operation.
