Absent Husband Declared Dead in Gloucester Probate Case
A Gloucester probate tale recounts A. Saville of Little Rock Arkansas proving a husband formerly believed dead is alive. Saville, a descendant of a Gloucester family, learned of the case via a St. Louis ad and arranged a visit that uncovered his continued existence. He later settled in Arkansas and rose to prominence, including a postmastership in Simpson. His wife, believing him dead, remarried, and Saville’s own remarriage produced three sons and a daughter, among them Prof Marshall Saville, archaeologist who recently returned from Mexico with Aztec findings.

Gal lagher backs the plan as a strong advocate. Bodine coordinates with large factories to mimic leaders like Fair Marshall Field Siegel Cooper Co. The challenge lies in placing schools inside factories, but once steady, prizes may reward top effort.
