Harrisburg June 20 The four year fight over the Garrett estate in Philadelphia spurred a Pennsylvania Bar Association committee to urge legislation to turn such estates over to the commonwealth. The vast fortune of Henrietta E Garrett who died in 1930 saw only about 67 thousand dollars pass under her will.
