London, Merch 6.--Ome of the strangest cases ever hrought before a sedate English court was heard this week in the probate division, when. an order was asked for leave to assume that a certain man who disappeared 128 years ago is dead, The man in question was C. M. Pulteney, who was practising as a surgeoni at Sherborne, in Dorsetshird, in 1780, The application was brought on behalf of the administrator of the estate of the late Sine Rebecca Pul- teney, a daughter of the surgeon, who herself depurted in 1533. The court took up the case in its traditional business-like fashion for the purpese of getting real evidence [that Mr. Pulteney was not an "inunor- tal, so that one-third of the sum of 85,000, represénting the surgeon's por- tion pf bis father's marriage settle ment; might finally te vara sver to ite: rightful owners, This sum of money was paid info eourt some time after Mr. Pulteney disappeared. and has been there ever since. It was finally decided that Mr. Pul- teney really died, and that £367 he- lofiging to him should be distsibuted to his heirs.
