Stokes has filed for probate. tt ix no: Mkely that the third wi! will ever appear in the legal fight for the Stokes estate. The will discovered to-day wan ex- ecuted In 1890, Like the will of 1891, tt made W. E. D. Stokes the executor of “Ed” Stokes‘a estate. Acconiing {0 Mortimer Kennedy Flagg, counsel for W. E, D. Stokes, the wills of 1899 and 1991 were elmilar in thelr bequests, except that W. E. D. Stokes was not named In the eariler will as a contingent reslduary legatee. The 1390 will was also a shorter Gocu- ment than the will executed by Mr. Stokes t: Vola, “While it ts true that W. EB. D. Stokes has, or had, another will in his possession,” sald Lawyer Flagg to an Evening Worid reporter to-day, “It does not change the status of tne case, Hav- Ing been executed in 189, the will of 1891 rendered Jt null and vold. If Mr. Stokes still has It In his possesston tt would be useless for him to file it. “It was not so good « will from our point. of view ar the 1891 will, be- cause the earller document named W. ‘i. Dp. Stoker only as executor, while the will of 1891 names him poth am ex- ecutor and as a contingent restuary legatee. “In the 1899 will W, E. D. Stokes would have had no share at all in the estate. Not In Quest of Money. “I would also Ike to contradict the statement that W. E. D. Stokes refused ,to turn over to his cousin, E. 8. Stokes, the wills in his papsession. EF. 8. Stokes never asked hia cousin for thoxe wills. It he had W. E. D. Stokes would have returned them without a moment's heai- tation. “Mr, W. E. D. Stokes han not entered this legal battle in quest of money. Personally he does not care whether or not he gets a penny of the estate left by hls cousin. He has come Into the caye as a friend of the oourt. All he wishes Is to have his legal status prop- erly determined “He belleves the will of 1891, naming him as executor, to be the valid will. If the court shall ‘determine that the will of 1594 Is |. Mr. Stokes will not con- test the decision. He wishes to know merely whether the task of adminixter- Ing the estate Ix to devolve upon him or on sume one else." May Ne a Fourth Will.
