Bloomfield, Ind., Sept. 9. —The will of Simeon Smith, the wealthiest citi zen of Green county, wfco died August 13, will be contested. Relatives ha' filed complaint in the circiut court asking that their title to certain real estate belonging to Smith be quieted and that certain deeds which were executed by Smith and held in escrow by the Union Trust Company, of Indianapolis, be annulled and set aside. The plaintiffs in the suit are John E. Hunsucker, Beldora Burrell, Tilden Smith, Daniel E. Smith and Maud B. Dixon, all of whom are nieces and nephews except Mrs. Burrell, who is a sister, and who was cut off without a penny by Mr. Smith. Under the terms of the will the trustees of DePauw university were to receive $50,000 to establish and maintain the Simeon Smith chair of chemistry, and by the deeds which he executed 160 acres of valuable land was to go to the Preachers’ Aid and Veterans’ Home Society of the Indiana conference of the Methodist church,. Lid eighty acres of valuable land to the Methodist hospital and Deaconess home at Indianapolis. About nine or. ten thousand dollars covered the bequests to relatives. All the residue of the estate, estimated at $200,000, was to go to the trustees of DePauw university. The total gift to DePauw was estimated at $250,000.- The estate consisted of 1,600 acres of valuable land, besides a great deal of personal property.
