is counsel for the defendants. while
the plaintiffs are represented by Hon.
C. K Jenner of Seattle.
The complainants are W. C. Osborn

If the complainants can establish a
relationship to James, Osborn, who

portion of the trust fund now going
to the city of Seattle should be diverb
ed to them.
Mr Curtis has heard testimony for
three days in the City Building, and
will have to go to N w York to hear
witnesses there. ’I‘ o witnesse who
have so far testified have been for
the plaintiffs. and were S W. Osborn,
