Son of Frank Wickersham, Who Was Disinherited, Seeks a Share of the Estate of the Late Petaluma Banker. gl Special Dispatch to The Call, SANTA ROSA, April 24.—The death of the late Frank P. Wickersham of Fresno did not end the litigation in the famous Vickersham will contest after all. To- day the papers were filed in a new suit, whereby 1. G. Wickersham Jr., the young son of the late Frank P. Wickersham and a grandson of the late Petaluma banker, through his mother and guardian, Mrs. Cora L. Wickersham, seeks to have the probating of his grandmother's will revoked. Three similar suits are also to be brought by the same parties as soon as the necessary papers can be prepared, and the big Wickersham estate seems destined to be subjected to even more litigation by reason of Frank P. Wickersham's death than would have been the case had he lived and carried out his original inten- ons. Y% history of the litigation up to date in the Wickersham will contest proceed- ings is interesting in the extreme. When the late 1. G. Wickersham, the well known Petaluma banker, passed away he left a will disposing of an estate valued at some- thing over a million dollars. All his heirs were well provided for in his last testa- ment with the exception of his oldest son, Frank P. Wickersham, then one of the best known residents of Fresno. He was cut off with $. Frank at once began con- test proceedings, but a compromise be- tween him and the other heirs was finally effected and the proceedings were dropped. By the terms of the agreement the contestant acceptad $28,000 In cash as his share of the estate and also waived all claim upon the estate of his mother, who was then living. A short time afterward Mrs. Lydia C. ‘Wickersham, his mother, died, and Frank began a suit contesting her will, denying | that he ever signed the agreement, and claiming that if he ever did it was while he was mentally incompetent owing to the excessive use of drugs, tobacco and alco- holfe stimulants. In his complaint some highly sensational allegations were made, but before the case came up for trial Frank Wickersham himself died, and the matter went by default, no attorneys ap- pearing at the time set for hearing. The case begun to-day marks what ap- pears to be the reopening of the entire matter, During the coming week Mrs. Cora Wickersham, the widow of the late Frank Wickersham, will, on behalf of her son, begin suit to nave the contest pro- ceedings instituted by her late husband just before his death revived. She will {nstitute a suit in her own name look- ing to the same end. Mrs. Wickersham will in her own name also bring suit to have the settlement of the estate of the late Mrs. 1. G. Wickersham set aside, as her son did to-day. Among the array of legal talent to gather before the Sonoma County bar in the Interest of Mrs. Wickersham and her late son when the matter comes to trial is State Senator Sims of this city, Attor- ney John P, Rodgers of Petaluma, Rior- dan & Lande of San Francisco, and At- torney Willlam F. Porter of Fresno. The biggest kind of a legal battle is ex: A citation has al v been Issued Judge Burnett, before whom the matter came up, directing the executors of the will of the late Lydia C. Wickersham to | appear in court on May 7 and show cause why the probate of the will should not be revoked. The grounds upon which to- | day’s suit is based are fraud, intluence | |and undue menace exercised upon her | lhushand by the other heirs of the tate, | | in Inducing him to sign the famous agree- ment whereby he sold his “birthright lor‘ a mess of poitage.’ | % - — Partners in the Enterprise Disagree and Go Out of Business.
