Legacy Heiresses Gain Substantial New Fortune in Chicago
In Chicago on July 19 two million fifty thousand dollars in cash, largely large denomination bills, were added to the fortune of the late John K. Stewart, auto parts maker. The windfall, hidden from five and fifteen year old heiresses and their guardian, was revealed in probate court. Inheritance tax on the new wealth totals forty three thousand dollars. Stewart’s estate was probated in 1916 with taxes on four million dollars, and his widow died soon after in North Carolina. She had entrusted additional currency totaling six hundred ninety thousand dollars to her nephew Leander H. Lachance, now guardian of the children, who brought it to Chicago for tax assessment.
