Singleton is to the fore with a’ claim that she is entitled to have distributed to her the $12,000 estate of Henry J, Windmiller, a miner who died in this city a few months ago and whose estate has since been in the hands of the Public Administrator. The appearance of the woman claim- ant is mysterious in that her op- position to the distribution of the ‘Windmiller estate to the three heirs of the deceased, who reside in Ger- many, is based on the claim that she is the miner's widow, a statement dis- puted by the heirs, who_say that the Geceased was never marr Attor- ney Hollister, who represenfs the Sin- gleton woman, will not discuss the case.
