Marian A Waller the sole surviving heir to W A Waller testified in his suit to recover inheritance from his uncle guardian Barney Coll. He recounted poverty from childhood after Tex Waller was killed in the Sliver King mine in October 1898 leaving a widow and three children. The boy, sent to Ireland, later learned of a fortune and traveled to Butte to claim it. He described living in a two room cabin with 11 relatives, eating meat only three times a year. He later learned of a 36 400 estate in Butte, but Coll refused to speak and a legal action for accounting began. The guardian claimed over 5 000 due, while Waller sought 13 000. The guardian and administrator used the funds for 14 years with bondholders noting mismanagement. estate funds were deposited with a bank cashier who allegedly loaned them out for profit. The hearing resumed following the day’s adjournment.
