Mistake With Finney Delays Transfer Of Elberding Estate
The Montana estate of Robert Elberding valued at 8190 will not transfer to Missouri for now. Judge Lindsay, in charge, remains unconvinced by the account of Carrie B Finney, guardian and cousin, who sought removal to Chicago and a $1760 bill for care and keeping. The court approved $924.20 in expenses after scrutinizing vouchers and statements, but withheld transfer pending full Missouri safeguards and final accounting.
