Files Claim in Excess of Property Owned by H. H. Bush.

The Republican published an account some time ago of the death of Henry H. Bush, at the Troxell hotel at DeMotte, and related the circumstances surrounding his mysterious life. Bush would not tell from whence he' came nor anything about his former life or his family. He was very industrious and thrifty and everyone liked him. When he died he left no statement and his body was buried by friends after an unsuccessful effort to locate relatives. On ills person was found $235.42 and he had $366 in the Bank of Wheatfield. He had been engaged in the business for a short time with C. D. Shook, who stated that he had been unable to get an accounting from Bush. Mr. Shook has now filed a claim with Albert Konovsky, the administrator of the Bush estate, for $740.03, which is considerable in'excess of the money left by Bush. The bill for the funeral expenses, amounting to SBS, was also filed.
