NOTICE TO CRFDITORS ALL PERSONS having claims or accounts against the late JACOB ANDREW LEVER, of the Township of Artemesia in the County of Grey, Farmer, deceased, are required to send full particulars thereof to the undersigned on or before the Twen- ty-third day of August, 1941. After that date the estate will be distrib- uted amongst those entitled thereto having regard only to claims 'and accounts of which notice shall at that time have been received. C. MIDDLE BRO', City Hall, Owen Sound Miller vs Magee Owen Sound, June 7, 1U41 C. N. Long, Esq., Clerk Twp. of Osprey Feversham, Ont. Dear Mr. Long: Re Miller vs Magee et al: I have gone into this case very carefully and have come to the con- clusion that I cannot advise the Township to proceed with the casp on behalf of Eli Miller. My reasons for coming: to this conclusion are, briefly, as follows: You already have the letter iof March 8th, written by Lucas and Glass to myseVf. If the information contained in this letter is correct, the position as to the estate is that the only asset of the estate is the farm. The mort- gage against this farm at the date of death, stood at $2171; there were funeral and administration expenses and other claims against the estate as follows : Administrtion expenses .... $ 7L.20 Emma McQueen's claim, settled for 130.0O Funeral expenses Magee claims that he has built a new cement pigpen costing $300, has shingled the driving shed and the house at a cost of approximately $200, and a new steel roof on the barn, exclusive of labor, $200. These without funeral expenses make a total of $100950 In addition to this, pursuant to the agreement signed between Magee and Miller, Magee has maintained Miller for one year. If we set the year's maintenance at $350, the total is $3530.20. with the farm mortgage. Unless, therefore, we could prove beyond question that the present value of the farm is beyond $3530.20, we would not be able to succeed in the action. From the information I have as to the value of the farm, I do not think we could possibly prove the value to be in excess of this am- ount, and the net result of bringing an action and losing it would be that there would fee costs incurred some- where between Five and Eight Hundred Dollars. ! If we were in the position that if | we won the case we would recover a substantial amount I think it would be well worth going on, but in this case the amount we would recover w-uld 'be very small, and in view of the amount of costs involved if we lost, I do not thing there is any justification in proceeding with the matter.
