M. Smith $1,000, George Summers $1,000, Eliza C. Summers $500 and to his surviving wife, who was his fourth wife, the sum of $300, which was to be paid out of the $1,000 willed to George Summers, and in addition she was to have a house and lot in St. Paul. About two hundred witnesses have been summoned and the parties to the suit are represented by the following attorneys: For the plaintiff, O. J. Glessner, J. W. Kern & Love, Major & Morrison.
