WILL IS PROBATED IN CIRCUIT COURT
Eliza Veregge Included Large Amount of Stock
Church Given $100
Three Children are Made the Chief Beneficiaries By Will
The will of the late Eliza Veregge, which was made in 1906 to which a codicil was made the following year was probated in open court this morning before Judge Fox.
The will was drawn May 24, 1908, and the codicil drawn on Aug. 22,
1907. The provisions of the will make the three children of Mrs. Eliza and John Frederick Veregge, the chief beneficiaries.
To the Trinity Lutheran church the sum of $100 is given.
To Anna Veregge, wife of her son, John H. Veregge, a gold watch was given. Other personal property including a silk shawl were given to her daughter Mrs. Ida Minnerman.
At the time the will probated was made Mrs. Veregge owned $2,500 worth of stock which was sold after the will was propounded. From the stock, which was preferred stock of Gaar, Scott and company, $12,500 was realized. Fifty shares or preferred stock together with 106 shares of common stock in the Rumely company were purchased as well as $5,500 worth of road bonds. The aggregate of the estate is approximately $22,000.
According to one item of the will, the income of the stock which was sold after the will was drawn, was to be divided equally among her three children John H. Veregge, Winfield Veregge, and Ida Minnerman.
The codicil of the will states that one-half of the annual dividends of the stock which was to be the share of Ida Minnerman was to be given to the children of Mrs. Minnerman for the purpose of providing a college education for them in Ohio State University or a course of its equivalent.
Attorneys for the heirs of the estate believe the clause will be set aside and the estate will be distributed equally among the heirs of the deceased, because of the fact that the stock referred to was sold.
The Dickinson" Trust Company appointed administrator- - of the will though the estate will be settled within a year and the banking institution will not be allowed to keep the estate in trust for many years as was proposed by the will made by Mrs. Veregge in the year 1911 which was annuled in court Monday after a trial lasting ten days.
