Molline Man Plans Sweden Trip to Claim 87000 Crown Inheritance
Peter Leif of Moline prepares to sail from Quebec to Sweden to pursue a legal claim to 87 000 crowns believed due to his four children. He has secured American passports and hopes United States Minister Thomas in Stockholm will aid his case after past Swedish attorneys allegedly deceived him. The estate concerns his late wife’s relatives and involves siblings in Sweden, with the real estate property reverting to kin if the claim succeeds. The children named are George Leif, Bessie Leif, Christina Leif, and Mrs. Engstrom.
