Young Heir Delights Neighbors With Million Dollar Plan
A San Francisco law firm sent a $5,000 expense to a 26 year old in New York to travel to Montana and collect a one million inheritance from an uncle in Butte. The heir says he would rather keep painting and not rush wealth, hoping to use money to help others or buy a small home rather than spend it. Neighbors praise his humility and doubt he will rush to claim the fortune. Copyright 1950 Newspaper Feature Service.
