Petition Seeks Probe of Greek Administrator in Trifillis Funeral
W N Birdsall and brothers Dimitrios and George Trifillis protest the discharge of administrator Peter Mavrelis over the estate of Kariakes Trifillis who died by electrocution at work on the Russell Lamson water project. They allege excessive funeral costs and improper court action, request accounting, and seek to block discharge until settlement. The heirs contest the $796.9 funeral bill and questioned payments to undertaker Edward F Kisner and other expenses, noting Trifillis earned about 8600 yearly and left an estate near 2495.27 after a 500 settlement. They urge administration challenges under Greek consul oversight and international law claims.
