Estate dispute over library collection looms
The court ruled the collection is the estate’s free property and may go to the Library if heirs agree. If there is any remaining burden, claims could affect its transfer. The collection is valuable but would fetch little if sold now. Additionally, local notices cover a widow’s $1000 share, a delayed Washingtonville Lyceum event, council street issues, and upcoming sports and club activities in Somerset.
