FEARS FOR HER LIFE.

One of America’s Richest Women Thinks She Is in Peril. New York, Dec. 28.—One of the most remarkable cases ever brought into the American courts promises to be that of Mrs. Hettj’ Green, one of the richest women in America, against the executors and trustees of her father’s estate involving millions of dollars. According to the story told by her lawyer, William H. Stayton, Mrs. Green is in fear of her life. A belief, firmly fixed, that a band of conspirators took the life of her father, Edward M. Robinson, and of her aunt, Sylvia J. Howland, of New Bedford years ago,and are now seeking her life and the life of her children continually haunts her. Glass, she declares, has been placed in her food not six months ago; blocks of wood and stones have been hurled at her from windows as she was passing on the sidewalks, and on numerous occasions her life has been threatened.
