CHANGE OF LUCK.

SHARE IN FORTUNE. SOUTHERN RELIEF WORKER. Per Press Association. CHRISTCHURCH, Nov. 26. Luck has taken a favourable change for Mr Duncan ivlaclennan, of Christchurch, who up till a short time ago was a relief worker, but who on Monday will leave for England to receive his share of an estate of £102,000 left by his uncle, a Manchester publisher. A cable message from London on October 22 stated that seven crofters of Hosshire and three immigrants to New Zealand would share in a fortune of £102,000 left by the Manchester publisher, Mr Kenneth Maclennan, who died inestate in July. To Mr Duncan Maclennan came a letter from a firm of solicitors advising him that he was entitled to a share in the estate. Air Alaclennan is coming back to Christchurch and has made plans to return early in the New Year. He is a married man and has been in New Zealand for thirteen years. To-day Air Alaclennan could not be induced to speak to the change in his fortune that has taken place in the past few months. “1 prefer to wait until I return,” he said. “Then I’ll have a story to tell you. Just now I am not independent, and I have only the vaguest details. When I get the money 1 think I will hide it, lor I’ve lost one fortune already.”
