Will Contest over Katherine Callahan Jewelry Trust
In New York Court today Katherine D Callahan’s will faces a bitter probate contest by her aunt Margaret Williams of 41 Fairmount Ave. The estate valued at 200000 largely goes to religious institutions. Jewelry valued at 20000 is to be melted and made into an ostensorium to hold the gems placed at the Female Academy of the Sacred Heart. The challenge argues Callahan was religiously influenced when making the will and that the stone clause creates an invalid trust without a time limit.
