mont of $10,000 In
Property
Judy* O. C. Dancy took under ad
visement Wednesday atfernoon the
contest villa of J, w. Lyle whlcn
involve some 110,000 in property
The Judge will probably consider
the cess several days before return
ing his finding, he said.
Lyle, who lived at Harlingen manv
years. Isft two wills. The first
named the following beneficiaries: j
Mra. Carrie A. Roger, niece; Geor
gia Anita Duncan and Mra. Kra
Imetta Sexton, grand nieces; Henry
Norman Roger and Joseph Ellis
Roger, grand nephews; and Mrs
Sarah Eliabeth Brewster, foster
daughter.
Just prior to his death June 37.
Lyle made a trip to Weatherford
to visit other relatives and friends.
There he made another will. It
named his wife. Virginia Carey; a
niece. Mrs. C. A. Roger and J. E.
Roger as benefieiariea
Both of the two groups are pro
testing the probate of the other,
will. The beneficiaries of the la*:*
will maintains that the document
signed hy Lyle st Weatherford is
his "last will” and does away with'
the previous instrument.
The other side alleged that undue
influence was put on Lyle at Wea
therford and that he was of un
sound mind at the time the paper
was signed.

BRITISH SEEK
SOVIET TRADE
Note Expresses Desire To
Resumo Commercial
Relations
LONDON. Sept. 12(APV—OlSSt
Britain today took new steps toward
resuming commercial and diploma
tic relations with Soviet Russia.
The British government sent to the
Norwegian government for tram
mission to the Russian government
a note expressing the view the time
had come when it would be de
sirable to resume the conversations
interrupted several months ago by
I the departure of the Soviet plenipo
tentiary Dovgaievsky.
Mr. Henderson and Ambassador
Dovgaievsky of Paris began prelimi
nary conversations for resumption
of trade and commercial relations
and renewal of diplomatic service
on July 29.
They reached a deadlock on Au
gust 1 when Great Britain refused
! to accede to the Russian desire for
immediate appointment of ambas
sadors before questions in dispute
were taken up and the Russian
ambassador returned to his post.
The question has been in abey
ance since then. A note handed
by M. Dovgaievsky to Mr. Hender
son said Mr. Henderson's declara
tion that immediate resumption of
diplomatic service was impossible
showed the British government was
unwilling or unable to agree to the
restoration of normal relations ba
i tween the two countries.
The note added Russia would
have to devote special new consid
eration to the question and that
the commissariat for foreign affairs
would apply to the question and
that the commissariat for foralfn
affairs would apply for Instructions
to the central executive committee
of the U. S S. R. ntohing has been
heard on the Russian side since.
