CORRESPONDENCE.
EE EDWAED NOEMAN, DECEASED.
To the Editor : Sir,— As solicitor for Mrs. Jane Martha Norman, you will, I trust, allow me sufficient space in your columns to correct an error in which, you appear unintentionally to have fallen, in respect to the portion of the deceased's property to which the eldest son would be entitled. The greater part;, if not the whole, of the property in the estate is, I believe, personal property ; and Mr. Bennetts client, even if he succeeds in establishing Ms claim to bo the heir-at-law oE the deceased (which I am informed is very doubtful), would be entitled to no mere that the other children would be entitled to after deducting the widow's third share. As far as I am instructed the property left by the deceased is of small value, the principal asset being the good-will and lease of the hotel. The rival claimants (and they appear to be logioo) are bidding fair to render this property valueless, and they will have, I am afraid, to regret in the end their very irrational contention. — I am, &c, A. Brock.
