Show Peculiar Will Upheld. An elderly Frenchman was found dead In his house at Doumeiy In the Ardennes. A search among his papers pa-pers failed to reveal any will until, under his bed, a piece of sheetlron was discovered, with these words written on it in white chalk: "I bequeath all my property: to the borough of Ardennes Ar-dennes on condition that the mayor gives 12 to the local fire brigade for a beanfest. (Signed) ." The relatives rel-atives disputed this queer and very brief will, but the local court decided that It was valid. |
