DUCKHAM MILLIONS.
. NEW BRIGHTON MAN’S CLAIM. (Special to “The Guardian.”! CHRISTCHURCH, This Day. Mr L. W. Besley, a baker, of 163 Sea view Road, New Brighton, is a ■member of the Besley family, mentioned in the cabled message from London (published yesterday) about the heirs to the Duekham millions. '".Mr Besley does not think there *is any likelihood of his inheriting any part of the fortuiie, even though the '' lawyer in charge of the case has .asked him for information as to his relationship with the famous Duekham. \ A printed history of the family .going back to the 16th century is at present mislaid. If it is found, it may prove the necessary relationships. There are many relations of Mr. Besley who would Jhave a claim to a oortion of the money.
