The John Peck Wheeler will ease. or
Strattord. was settled out or court. last
Friday. whentn recognition was enact;-
cd between the daughters of the deceas—
ed. and his widow. who was their atep~
mother. The widow madouover to one
of the daughters. as a gift. what she
would have been entitled to had her
father left to her what by right would
have been her just portion of his as-
tate. which was a large one. This
daughter is Mrs. Charles Wakeley, and
in the will she was cutoff with 350. The

 

_ Stratiord Methodist Church will also

profit bythc amicable settlement. re~
delving $8.000, one-half of which is to

mammalian to music. ’ ; .

John: Peck Wheeler: was a wealthy
resident of Stratiord, who came into
unpleasant notoriety a, couple of years
ago. when his two daughters applied to
the town for help. he refusing to pro-
vide for them as he should. The Strat-
ford authorities brought the matter in~
to the courts, where the trial was a
long one and the case was bitterly con-
tested. many of the prominent residents
of the town being called upon to tea»
tify. The sympathy of all was with
the daughters. and the case was decided
in their favor.

When Mr. Wheeler died and his will .

was offered for probate. it was found
that one daughter had been cut ofl.’ with
$50. and an appeal from probate was
taken. -'i‘hc case was in a fair way to
drag along in the courts for an indef-
inite period. but some influonces were
brought to bear which resulted in the
settlement. as stated, last Friday.

It is said by some that the revival
services in the Stratford Methodist
Church are mainly responsible for the
settlement arrived at. However that
may be. the fact Is that the whole fam-
ily went to the altar last Friday night.
for prayers. and there was a joyful rah
union after long years of ostrangemcnt
and 'bitterhiids, “during which neither
side was inclined to yield a point. A
prominent member of the church. when
talking about the case last night. said:
“liven it no other result is accum-
plished by the meetings which have
been held of late. this one result is
something grand. It has brought es~
trangcd relatives together again in her.
many and peace. I, for one. am thor-
oughly satisfied that the good result is
attributable to the religious awakening
we have had in the old town. and I look
for still more good results to be accom»
pliuhed."

The settlement of the case has been
the talk of the town since Friday, and
all express pleasure that justice has
finally been done. though long delayed.
