Contested Will of Sugar Refiner Weard Say Draws Attention
In Parle the will of late sugar refiner Weard Say is under attack in the Paria court of appeals. The story notes Say’s widowhood and connections to Miss Davis and Count d Hoerset, with mention of a vast estate worth 50,000,000 and related family ties in a sprawling historical narrative.
