Adverse ruling in Duganne estate dispute may reach court
Auditor John J. Harvey filed findings in the Mary E. Duganne estate matter. Inventories place the estate at 35000 to 40000 dollars with the Ministry-at-Large claiming a third via a life estate provision. Executors argued the property was Mrs. Duganne’s separate estate, noting she paid 1551.36 dollars more than she received from her husband’s estate, and corrected a mistaken 74 share entry of New England Telephone stock. The probate court will act on the report, with potential supreme court appeal if sustained.
