CLAIMS JACOBS
WILL WAS ALTERED
FRANK JACOBS PRESENTS PETI-
TION TO HAVE UNCLE’S TES-
TAMENT RESTORED TO
ORIGINAL FORM.
Alleging that the will of the late
Hiram Jacobs, of Maytown, after he
had attached his signature in the
presence of witnesses was tampered
with, a nephew, J. Frank Jacobs, of
near Marietta, had a petition present
ed to the Lancaster County Orphans’
Court at the session Thursday and
Judge Engene G. Smith granted a
rule to show cause why the document
should not be restored to its original
condition. The rule is returnable on
the Monday in November.
The Jacobs estate was appraised
and adjudicated at $77,591.922. Mr.
Jacobs died July 23, 1920. The will
was produced shortly afterwards.
This document was dated July 20,
1915, was offered in evidence this
morning in court, along with the pe-
tition. will is witnessed by Chas.
D. Zell and John H. Henderson.
The will is typewritten and con-
tains the statement (through which
a line has been drawn) that the
Guaranty Trust Company of Lanc
aster shall be one of the executors of
the estate. The other executor is his)
wife, Mrs. Minnie E. Jacobs, and to
The
her alone the letters testamentary
were granted by the registers of
wills. The change from two executors
to one necessitated changing the pers
onal pronoun from the plural to the
singular number several times in one
paragraph. There was also inserted
the stipulagion ‘“4without bond”
following the name of Mrs.
Jacobs as executor.
“The petitioners, J. Frank Jacobs,
contends that cert®in portions of
the documents have been altered,
erased and insertions made after the
paper was duly signed by the dec-
edent and his signature witnessed by
the witnesses to the will. He asks
that it be restored to the condition it
was before the alleged changes were
made.
A paragraph through which lines
have been drawn, to indicate can
cellation, stipulated that the bal
ance of the estate, after certain part
icular bequests had been given,
should be divided into four parts: one
fourth to go to the nephews and
nieces of his brother John L. Jacobs,
of Maytown; one fourth to the
children of a deceased brother,
James H. Jacobs, of Mifflin county;
one fourth to the children of a dec-
eased sister, Zorfa Mayers, of May
town; and a final fourth to the
children of a deceased sister, Leota
E. Dobler, of Maytown.

BARN NEAR BAINBRIDGE
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Fire of undetermined origan com
pletely destroyed a large barn on the
farm of John H. Myers, about three
fourths of a mile above Bainbridge
and Falmouth pike. The loss is esti-
mated at about $9,000, party cov-
ered by insurance.
The fire occured at about 1:30
oclock Friday afternoon. Workmen
in an adjoining field saw smoke
issuing from the doors and upon in
vestigating, found the entire place a
mass of flames inside. The season’s
crop of hay. wheat, straw and
potatoes, the farm implements and
all of the harness were destroyed and
the entire structure was burned to
the ground. No effort was made to
save the building, as the fire had
gained too much headway before it
was discovered. Bucket brigades
kept the flames from spreading to
adjoining buildings.
