MONEY FOR HEIRS OF GUSSIE FRENCH

Ohio Relative Says She Married Man Named Pierce and Moved to Some Place in Indiana.

The Republican is in receipt of a letter of inquiry from Allan G. Aigler, attorney-at-law, of Belleview, Ohio, which states that he Is Interested in the settlement of an estate wherein Gussle French Pierce or her heirs would be entitled to a very large sum of money if they can be found. The letter continues: "I am Interested in the settlement of an estate In Ohio wherein Gussie French Pierce or her heirs would be entitled to a very large sum of money if they can be found. “Gussie French was formerly a resident of Painesville, Ohio, and married a man by the name of Pierce a gOod many years ago. The old residents of Painesville say that Gussle French was a beautiful girl and one of the belles of the town at the time of her marriage to Pierce. There old residents state that they are sure Mr. and Mcs. Pierce went to Indiana to live, where a daughter and son were born to them, that after the lapse of a few years fol lowing the marriage the parents of Gussle French died, and slnee that time no word has ever been received from her by the Painesville people now living. It happens that all the intimate friends of Gussle French are dead and that the old people now living there can give no more definite information that this which I have, already related. •'We believe that by giving the matter the necessary publicity In some of the best Indiana papers, either Gussie French Pierce or her heirs will be foufid. and if you feel disposed to run a brief account of the story, either in the form I have

given it, or so ehanged as to suit your convenience, I will indeed be grateful to you. It is imssible that Gussle French Pierce or her heirs are living in your city and that your publication of these facts will result in the placing of the money where it rightfully belongs. Yours very truly, ALLAN G. AIGLER.”
