Dewey Asked to Enter Cornell Bequest Case

Governor Thomas E. Dewey was asked to intervene in a dispute over a will that allegedly leaves about 100000 dollars to Cornell University. The will, dated 1951, was made by Frank G. Snyder of Newfield and he died in February. Snyder’s nephew Dr George Snyder of Los Angeles contests probate, alleging his uncle was mentally unsound and a recluse. The case involves a large estate said to favor Cornell, with minor bequests to others. An appeal pauses the probate contest and a jail term for the appellate court hearing is planned. The physician claims questions over the body’s identity in a planned burial, while local officials deny any court order delaying interment. The subject is a former Newfield supervisor and naval engineer who lived on an 8 acre farm near Ithaca.
