    August 9 in Buffalo, leaving the bulk
    of an estate of $4,300 real and
    $222.84 personal property, to a
    daughter, Helen V. Curry, Buffalo.
    Although other children had
    sought to break the will on the
    grounds that Mrs. Curry exerted undue
    influence on her mother, no
    one appeared in court this morning
    to contest it. The action went
    by default and the jurors were Instructed
    by County Judge Gold as
    to what their verdict should be.

    court admitted the will to probate
    and Issued letters testamentary to
    Mrs. Curry and Gervase Rhoney,
