Tito motion made lids morning by tra Shafer on behalf of Miss Hollins was to reopen the CIVIC in order to scenic a jury trial. Thc argument brought to light n strange story. A few years ago the lal her of Miss Hohins, a very wealthy man. died, leaving $750,000, and a short time afterwards an aunt didi, leaving an additional (80,000 to Miss Hollins for life, the principal to go to her legitimate issue.
