Rathbun. The case is brought against Ellen M, Chapman and twenty-one others in diff- erent section of the country. There are eighty parties to the suit the largest number in any Rhode Island case for many years. The respondents are repre- sented by Louis W. Arnold of New York, Higgins and Fitzgerald of Paw- tucket and Judge Edward M. Burke of Westerly. The suit is for the petition and sale of real estate of Charies D. Chapman, which he owned at the time of Wis death, an din which the widow has a one-third dower right. The purpose is to convert by sale the real estate into cash for dis- tribution to the heirs. The real estate involved is the dwelling and land in High street, the Chapman quarry tract of four acres, tract of two acres near ike railroad not far from the town farm, about thirty acres in the eastern part of the town, four tracts of one hundred and sixty aeres near Burden's pond and which includes a cranberry bog.

This same matter was before the su- preme court of Rhode Island, for inter- pretation of the Chapman will and a de- cision was rendered that the property, aside from the widow's dower, belonged to the other sixty-nine persons who are parties in the present action. | Selden Young, of Westerly, superin- tnedent of the Hillandale stock famr, was Flected a vice president of the Rhode Istand Holstein-Friesian Breeders' ass siation organiszed Wednesday in Prov dence at a meeting of the Holst\in cat- te breeders of the state.
