Court Battle Over Cows Pasture In Kingsland Will
In the Court of Chancery at Jersey City a suit seeks to force Margaret Kingsland executrix to provide hay and pasture for two cows as required by her husband Joseph Kingsland's will. The 1878 will split a large estate between daughters and sons with a provision that as long as daughters remain wed, each son must furnish hay and pasture for a horse and a cow. Since 1895, Margaret Kingsland allegedly refused and hired counsel to enforce the will and recover about $1,000 spent on hay and pasture. The case faces procedural questions as counsel could not fit a form, and the chancery suit resumes Monday before Vice-Chancellor Pitney.
