Louis V. De Birney of Walter Reed Hospital filed a bill in equity asking Justice Barnard to appoint a receiver for Victor Anderson’s estate, alleging Anderson vanished on August 15 and wrote a Baltimore dated suicide note on August 17. The missing man named De Birney to inherit his property and be executor, detailing assets including 128 Eleventh Street NW worth 10,000 and 78 acres on the Anacostia River. Anderson’s last known location was 634 L Street NW, he was about 50, Swedish descent, and police in DC and Baltimore have yet to locate him. He was a partner in Anderson & Meyers, formerly at 132 G Street, until 1901.
