FAMILY CHOSTS ARE_EXHIBITED Guardian of Insane Widow of Henry Voorman Tells How Her Wealth Was Uséd [ MIXED \ TITLES GREATL ' Suit to Declare Trust in Wife’s Favor for Property Bought With Her Funds i DA On behalf of #he insane widow of | Henry Voorman a suit was begun yes- | terday in the Superior Court which may involve the distribution of his $600,000 estate or may be only a pro- | ceeding to quiet title to the prdperty | which falls to his seven heirs. John | R. Aitken was appointed guardian of Mrs. Mary A. Voorman, and his ap- pointment and the suit were filled to- gether. The fact that Mrs. Voorman owned valuable property before she adjustment of the rights and titles has never been had, affords speculation as to the purpose of the latest proceeding in the case. Annie Laura Voorman and the six other heirs are named as defendants. Since 1875 Mrs. Voorman has been in the insane asylum at Stockton. The | contentions of her guardian, probably | made in the interests of some of her lawful heirs, will have a significant | bearing upon the distribution of the ! estate. It is alleged that when Voor- | man married his wife in 1858, she was the owner of the property at the cor- | ner of Jackson street and Sullivan al- ley. He acted as her agent and made no accounting. | It is averred that on June 24, 1869, | he had $21,000 in his possession that | belonged to his wif¢ and with it pur- chased from W. F. Swasey a properly{ at Bush and Mason streets. He took | the conveyance in his own name and in his last will he did not specifically | | devise this property to the heirs, who are made defendants in the present suit. It is further alleged that in January, 1877, Voorinan held $30,000 collected in rents from his wife's property and con- verted by him to his own use and that in January, “1883, in consideration of the rents so collected, he sold the Bush and Mason streets property to his in- sane wife. It is asked that the court declare that he held the title to the property in trust for her and that her title thereto be declared complete. i e GERMAN ORDER OF RED MEN OPEN CONVENTION Interesting Session Marks the Be- | ginning of the Santa 1 Cruz Work. .
