This last question is a deeply involved one. Count Creighton, it will be remem- bered, bequeathed $1,10000 in specific amounts to Creighton university, the pro- posed working girls' home and to varlous other beneficiaries including relatives. He then declared that the residue and remain- der of the estate should be divided so that each beneficiary already named should get share of this residue In such a propor- tion as the specific bequest bore to the whole estate. ¥ Over this there were several divergen- cies of opinfon. The working girl's home hequest was $60.000, which is a littie over | 1 per cent of the whole $4,000,000 estate. The residue after the $1,160,000 pf specific be- quests comes to 33,850,000 and 1 per cent of this would be $38,600, It is claimed by the other side that the proportion should be estimated as the specific bequest to the | home is to the total of specific bequests nd in this way it is figured that ihe total |OLDEST METHUDIST AT REST Henry Brown, Pioneer Member of | State, Will Lie at Lincoln.
