Widow’s legacy dispute prompts public appeal for aid
A widow, with two sons, died nine years ago leaving a balance of about 181 in assets to be shared. The eldest son pursued an East Indies voyage and later learned his brother had died, leaving his wife and four children well off. The surviving brother now seeks his share but faces law, wondering if there is a simpler path to recovery. He asks if any city in the United Provinces has an orphan house to pay without law suits, and signs as T. Meanwell.
