THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDA , JUNE 6, 1896 I N S S R L R PR GARCELON TRUST § SUSTAINED, United States Judge Haw- ley Decides the Deeds Are Valid. END OF A FAMOUS SUIT. An Oakland Hospifal and Bow- doin College the Principal Beneficiaries. VAIN EFFORT OF TWO NEPHEWS Eccentric Oakland Widow's Wishes to Be Carried Out. She Was of Sound Mind. The The famous Garcelon trust was declared valid by Judge Hawley yesterday. The decision covers fifty closely type-written pages, every detail of the case being care- fully gone into and sifted to the bottom. The litigation involved $1,250,000, the principal losers being James P. and Fred- erick A. Merritt, nephews of the late Dr. Merntt of Oakland. Mrs. Garcelon, as the sister of the latter, inherited his prop- erty and at the time of her death, Decem- ber, 1891, was considered the richest wo- man in Oakland. She deeded Bowdoin College $400,000 and also put aside $600,- 000 to found a hospital in Oakland. The relations of the deceased sought to annul the deeds on thre- grounds; first that it was created to evade the State statute permit- ting only one-th of an estate to be given to charity by wiil; second, that Mrs. Garce- lon was not in her right mind when the trust was created; third, that she was un- duly influence by the trustees, John A. Stanley and Stephen W. Purrington. Jundge Hawley consumed two hoursin delivesing the opinion, which is in part as foliows: The main question for decision was whether a decree should be given against James P. Merritt, Catherine M. Garcelon, next of kin against Harry P, Merritt, her residuary devisee and legatee, and against George W. Reed, her administrator, declering valid a deed of real estate of the value of $750,000, and a convey- ance of personal property of the value of $500,- 000. To arrive at a proper solution of this ques- tion it will be necessary, among other things to determine, first, whether the convevances were executed in violation of section 1313 of the Civil Code of California, which makes void any attempt of & person 10 give by will more than one-third of his estate to charitable pur- oses ; second, whether Catherine M. Garcelon Bedithe: mentar capacity to comprehend the character and extent of her make the conveyance; third, whether the conveyances were obtained from her by undue influence or fraud. It will become necessary in reviewing the questions of fact to consider all the circum- stances and surroundings of the respective parties. The testimony of the witnesses covered a wide range and opened a broad field for the study of human nature in all of its phases and essential characteristics. The reasons for the conclusions reached by the court cannot very well be erystallized by brevity of expression into the limited space of an ordinary judicial opinion. Many of the minor details of the evi dence will not be noticed at all. Others will only be generally stated. It will, however, be essential to refer in a review upon the most important questions to the lives, history and character of some of the persons who figure so prominently in the transactions involved in this litigation. ¥ * * ® It is proper to state that the wit- nesses were, 83 & rule, intelligent, many of them being people of extensive business expe- rience and knowledge, men and women of probity and strength of character. Many of them were the relatives or the close friends of the family of Dr. Merritt or Mrs. Garcelon and frequent visitors at their home. Their char- acter and credibility, with two or three excep- tions, were unimpeached and stand unques- tioned. Many of the witnesses who appeared on behalf of the defendants were more or less, in personal feeling at least, interested in the result of this litigation. Several of them had mnot received as much from Mrs. Garcelon as they expected. Some of the witnesses who ap- peared on behalf of the complainants were also beneficiaries in the trust and were satis- fled with what they had received and felt grateful for the kiud remembrances of Mrs. Garcelon. The interested fecling of many of the witnesses was plainly discernible by the court, and in several instances human nature plainly manifested itself. Judge Hawley here read section 1313 of the Civil Code of California, after which he continned : The defendant’s contention is that doeu- ments in question were ambulatory, revocable at the will and pleasure of Mrs. Garcélon dur- ing herlife, and that it was not intended they should take effect, so far as sne was concerned, untilaffer her death, and that these condi- tions make the document a will and not a deed. * * * The statute in question does not apply to every disposition of property is evident from a careful reading of its pr sions that it is limited in its application to “devises or bequests” of property by will. It does not apply to deads. Every person having the mental capacity and being free from debts and personal obligations, has the unques. tioned right to convey and dispose of his property by deed as he pleases, and his acts in oing cannot be set aside if the transaction is free from fraud and undue influence. The court then reviewed the contention of the defendaits that the intention of the parties was to make a will, and that the documents were put into the form of a trust deed for the express purpose of evading section 1313. This argument was sought to be upheld on the grounds, among othérs, that Mrs. Garcelon after the signing of the papers continued through her agent to manace the property, and at all times treated it as her own, and that she often spoke of the documents in ques- tion as her will. Judge Hawley held that the document in question was a deed, and had been delivered to the trustees as suci:. It was claimed by the complainants that the deed of trust only contained a limited power of revocation. He continued: Conceding, for the purposes of this opinfon, that the revocation does apply to the charities, it does not des:ro{ the character of the docu- ment s a deed, for no revocation was ever ma * * * TJiistrue that Mrs. Garcelon’s iden at the inception was to make a will, but when the matter was fully explained to her she directed that the disvosition of her property should be made by deed. It is also true that Mrs. Garcelon .during her life time spoke of the trust papers as her will. * * * My conclusion is that the instruments were rot executed i{n iraud or in violation of the siatutes. Thet the disposition of the property for charitable purposes was by deed, which is not prohibited by any of the provisions of the code. . Judge Hawley held that while Mrs, Gar- celon was weak physically, she was of sound mind and perfectly capable of mak- ing the conveyance in question. The court referred to Stephen W. Purrington as a ‘‘crusty, penurious old bachelor. A trusted friend and an_honest man.” In order, Judge Hawley reviewed the different characters in the great contest, closing his decision as follows: she fully understood_their contents and her execution of them was her own free and volun- tary act: It was her deed. Her declaration of trust, * * * In all things she meant to do right. She did her best. Who, under the cir- cumstances, even in perfect health, could have done better ? Complainants are entitled toa decree against all of the defendants and to recover costs against all except es to the defendants who in their answers disclaimed having any interest herein, and Frederick A. Merritt. Sl s R They Were Dischargod. Theodore Witts, Douglas Willis and Edward Cross, three of the six young men arrested Tnursday evening charged with insulting ledies passing along the sidewalk were dis- property and to | charged by Police Judge Conlan yesterday morlgin& “ar some time the residentsin the vicinity of Webster and Herrmana streets have been complaining that gangs of young fellows about 17 and 18 years old have been in the habit of congregaling on the street corners at night and making walking nuisances of them- selves, and the arresis were the result of a raid by police officers in plain clothag. Witts, Willis umFCmss seem to have been idnocentof the charges. ELDER'S SALARY PAID. Superintendent of Streets Ashworth Signs the Inspector of Sidewalks’ Warrant. The anticipated legal battle between Superintendent of Streets Ashworth and Tuspector of Sidewalks George W. Eider over the payment of the latter’s salary is nolonger on the cards, for Ashworth has signed the disputed warrant, and Elder is ingling the comn. Ashworth evidently saw from the manner in which other City officials viewed his action that his posi- tion was untenable after having signed Eld.r's predecessors’ warrants for several years, and got out of the matter as grace- fully as possible by putting his signature where it was most needed. i ““This will save me an attorney fee,” said Elder, as he presented his warrant to the Treasurer, ‘“for if he had not signed I would have had Ashworth in court on Monday.” OLD AND NEW DRESSES. Mrs. Auzerais-Hoyte’s Dressmaker Sues for Money Due Her. Mrs. Lucy W. Augerais-Hoyte of local histrionic fame was yesterday sued by her dressmaker, Mlle. A. Truffert, for a matter of $419 25, balance due for goods furnished and services rendered since S8eptember 10, 1895. That ladies of wealth sometimes resort to the device of making new dresses out of old ones is evidenced by the itemized bill submitted in ‘the compleint. There are several charges for making over worn and cleaned garments. The expense-account items run all the way from 50 cents for bottle of syrup of grenadine to $120 for an imported dress.
