Pro perty Involved A Complete Illatory of the Case-Nature or the Bill In Kqulty A "Coatract" Between an Aunt and a Niece on Account of Family Plfli cultlei. " S Boston, Octobor fi. The 'ilowlund will case" is In the Courts apain, hikI is attracting (food cal ol attention, not only locally but public!;. For more than titty jearn the leading firm In die wealthy city of New Jtedlord hoa be d that of Isaac Howland, Jr. & Co., the junior member of the firm being Gideon Howland. a son-in-law of Isaac. The tirm was edtabllshfd in 1812, and with a capital ot less than $90,000 Invested iu the whale ifrhery, the busluei-e of the Brm in creased to nearly $3,000,000. They were agents lor a laree uumber ot ships Whales were plenty. Kerosene was then uuknown and gas was but little used, and consequently the protits l the Brm were enormous, and a lortuno was made very rapidly. In 1820 Mr. Thomas Man dall was admitted Into the firm as a partner, and at the death of the senior member the busi ness was continued and conducted by Gideon Howland and Mr. Mandall. - ' In 1833 Mr. Bdward Mott Robinson married Mbs A boy 8. Howland, a daughter of Gideon. Mr. Mott became a member ot the firm, and the business continued as successful as ever. In I860 Uldeon Howland, the only surviving part ner ot the original house, died, leaving an immense property, which was divided between Mrs. Robinson and his only daughter, Miss Sjlvfa Ann Howland. Following the death of ir. Howland, Miss Howland became a member of the house, Mr. Mandall being at the head ot the same, and doing all the busineos. He also managed the immense property of Mrs. Robin ion, and conducted the business to her entire satisfaction. Mr. Mott was not generally liked by all persons who came in coutiict with him. He was universally known as a hard-natured, close, business man, yet he was some times inclined to calLall men dishonent except ing "Thonins Mandall." In 18fil, Mr. Robliuon withdrew lrora the firm in New Bedford and removed to New York, where he made a busi ness connection with the tirm of William T. Coleman A Co., shippers and commission mer chants. Relore leaving the scene where he had accumulated so much wealth lroni out of the deep waters, and while a member ot the flrui of Isaac Howlund, Jr. & Co., a large portion of Jbis private capital was employed in the shipping busme6. Mrs. Kobiusun died in New Bedior I in 1859, or some time prior to her husband's re moval to New York. Miss Hetty Robinson, his daughter, continued to reside with her aunt, Mis Howland, in New lied lord. Mr. Robinson died in the early part of 18C5. leaving a property estimated at lour millions of dollars. By the provisions ot his will he con templated leeacles amounting to $30,000, and gives to his daughter" Hetty $1,000,000 outright, and leaves the balance to his executors in trust. One would suppose that Miss Hetty would be satisfied with being a millionaire, but she is not tatisned, and is now tudenvorlug by her lawyers to pet the lion's share. Mies Hetty is about thirty-two years of age. .She is not only peculiar in her habits, but de cidedly eccentric. The people of New Bedford are highly indignant that she should take measures to break clown the will of her aunt, Miss Howland, thereby depriving many worthy and needy persons of the legacies left them by that good lady, as well as keeping a number of ' charitable institutions from enjoying the bo 1 jiucsts made them by the provisions of the will. The city of New Bedford is also interested iu the will to the amount of $200,000. Miss Howland, the aunt, died in June, 1865, after a long illness, at the age of titty-nine. she left a property amounting to between two and three millions of dollars. Her will is dated September 1, 18G3. A codicil is attached to it, dated November 28, 184. By the will she be queaths the sum of $1,100,000. The will of Miss Howland was offered at Pro bate Court, in New Bedford, on the 6th of Au gust, 1805. The subscribing witnesses to the will and codicil, Dr. Jacob liigelow, of Boston; Hon. Thomas D Elliot, of New Beuford; Hon. John M. Williams, William C. Taber, Esq., and Simpson Hart, Esq., of Boston, were all present at L'oinf On the occasion referred to the court room was cruiYdcd with spectators, as toe mat ter was one of general as well as of local inte rest. The counsel present were Hon. B. P. Thomas, of Boston: Hon. T. D. Elliot and Hon. T. M. Stetson, of New Bedlord, for the executor; Thomas Mandall, Esq., ex-Oovcrnor Clifford, Oliver Prescott, and William W. Crapo, Efqn., ol New Bedford, appeared for tlie con testant, Miss Hetty Robinson. Judge Bennett presided. On motion ol the contestant's counsel, tor the purpose ot obtaining a full hearing, the case was postponed until September 25, follow ing, when, as belore, the court-room was over flowing with spectators, many of them directly or Indirectly interested iu the case. At this time it was shown by the executor, Mr. Mandall, that Miss Howland, in her sick chamber at Round Hills Farm, assented to each and every paragraph mentioned in the will and codicil, including the residuary bequest to Miss iietty. 10 tuis parncuuir ueiu sue reuiui.rc'j, That is right, Hetty will have enough." Dr. Jacob Bigeiow and Hon. J. M. Williams jointly made a draft ot the will about a week belore the fleeeased died, and the copy which was signed was written on the day of us date. After it was signed, she said it was a codicit to her will, and that it was in accordance with her wishes. In evidence it was shown that there was no doubt of Miss Howlaud's competency. Her mind was clear, and she bad a keen knowledge of all events eoing on around her. At her request the fact of the codicil was kept private, and it was unknown to Hetty. For tlie contestant, Dr. William A. Gordon, her regular physician, said . that he had read the will, and that Miss How land had consented to its provisions that it was Just as she w anted it. The" testimony on both sides was in tavor of the executor. No arguments were olfered on either side. Judge Uennett reviewed the testimony, and decided to admit the will to probate, giving the contestant thirty days in whieh to take au appeal. Miss Hetty Robinson's attempt, at this time, to break the will, on the ground ot unsoundness of mind on the part of her aunt, totally failed. Within the time allowed by law. uotice was given to the respondent, Mandall, of an intention on the part ot the complainant to file a bill in equity. The bill was duly filed, and it disclosed some facts not belore known to the public. It alleges that the complainant was the nluco and sole heir-at-law of the testatrix, Sylvia Ann Howland, by whom she was brought up ancrteducated, with whom she lived, and who performed the duties of a mother to the complainant, i At the time she came into the possession ot propeny from her mother, she was, to use a ' common expression, at swords-points with Edward Mott Robinson, the father ot the com plainant, and did not disguise the fact of her intense desire to prevent him receiving any benefit whatsoever from the vast property re ceived Irom her mother; and, tor the purpose ot making a sure thing of it, in case the com plainant should survive her aunt, requested the complainant, Miss Hetty Robinson, to make a will, so that in the event of her decease before her father he should not in any way Inherit any r,nrt ol the nrouertv. Shoalso aareedlthat if this arrangement was complied with they would ' exchange wills. Each was to have possession of the other, and neither party was to make auy other will without notifying the other and cominp into possessian of their own wills. In obedience to this tacit understanding, Miss Hetty made a will on the 19th of September, I860, by which she gave all the property she then bad to her Issue, it any, and in default, to charitable purposes. Her lather, of course, was left out in the cold. Her aunt, MUs Howland, received the will according to arrangement, and the instrument was lound among ner papers alter her demise. The aunt had caused a draft to be made of her will, but, as it appears, lett , the date of it blank, and postponed the execu tion of it on account of the belief that the later : a will was executed the more operative it would be. But the draft was executed, and delivered on the 11th ot January, 1802. But now comes the origin ot the "Howland Will Case." It is alleged that notwithstanding this secret agreement, to be binding on both parties, Miss Howland, the aunt, as we have already intimated, made another will in Sep-tr-robcr, 1M3, and a codicil, also relerred to. in November, lb4. No notice whatever was frn to Mif8 Hetty of this new order ot things. Tho will wss admitted to probate. Thereiore it is that Miss Hetty undertakes to break her aunt's will, contending by her eminent counsel, that "Miss Sylvia Ann, brina: bound In equity not to make a will, tho executor is bountt by the con tract, and should deliver up all the property to the complainant." So far as tbl tenure or tho case is concerned, Miss Hetty make a stong point, but there Is, as later developments show, something mysterious about the whole matter. Sorre months have elapsed since notice was given to the respondent, Mr. Mandall, and, il all accounts are correct, a large amount ot secret investigation has been goine on in the interim. If all the facts in the case could be known, the public would have, a rich dish of pabulum to feast upon. A sort of private taking of deposi tions and examination of witnesses has taken plaee lately before Judge Pitman in the Probate Court. Toe judicial atmosphere in court circles is lull of rumors of "forgery," "slow poison," "conspiracy," end what not, and if Indications are to be trusted, there will soon be music and astonishing developments. The amount In volved in the case is too large to be carelessly or hurriedly dealt with; and the lawyers, who have got fat pickings, will probe the matter to the quick, and unfold, In Idue time, the true version ot the laiuily difficul ties, and whether or not somebody is trying to make a big fortune in a very short time, The examination of John Earl Williams, Esq., President of tho Metropolitan National Bank of New York, in reference to the siznatures ap pealing in the will ot Mis Howland, may per haps prove to bp an important one, if not lead to etariline developments. It is surmised that the second will is a forgery, for it is known that the aunt and the niece were sincere in their in tentions when they agreed to chanae wills. The influences brought to bear upon Miss Sylvia to make a second will arc the subject of no incon siderable talk, and it yet remains to be seen who the party is that was successful in bringing about its consummation. Accord ing to one witness, obtained by outsiders in a clandestine manner, it appears thai Mr. Mandall, executor of the will, has been w ithdrawing lunds from the property and dealing ii out according to tho provisions of some of the letracies, to the great Htonihment ot Miss Hetty liobinson, the complainant, and who Geeks to stop everything of the kind. That there is a looseness about ' the whole affair is transparent, but sufficient facts have not yet transpired to prove how much of the property has been thus disposed of, or who are the par ties mixed up in the scheme of th wartime the designs of Hetty. It is a knotty state of thinsrs at least. Miss Hetty is now in the possession of more property than t.he knows what to do with, but her grasping and scltlsh nature naturally excites a good deal ot gowsip, if not indignation, in the community in whu-n 6he resides.
