WILL CONTEST
DUE IN APRIL
______
ANSWER IN SAMUELL ESTATE
SUIT FILED BY ADMIN-
ISTRATOR
Hearing on the contest of the will of the late Anne Lovell Samuell, first wife of Dr. W. W. Samuell, who died here recently, leaving more than half a million dollars to the city park board, probably will be held in April, it was said Thursday, after formal answer in the will contest suit was filed.
The contest action was brought by Mrs. Mary Lovell Leneham and her husband, Patrick J. Leneham, both of New York City. Mrs. Leneham is a sister of the first Mrs. Samuell. She charges her sister was subject to undue influence when making the will in which the bulk of her estate went to Dr. Samuell.
Answer in the contest action was filed by S. M. Leftwich, attorney for the First National Bank in Dallas. The bank was named defendant in Mrs. Leneham's suit by reason of it having been designated as administrator of Dr. Samuell's estate in his will. The answer makes general denial of allegations in Mrs. Leneham's suit. A plea in abatement was also filed by the bank. This claims Mrs. Leneham has no interest on which to sue, pointing out Dr. Samuell would have inherited his first wife's property had there been no will.
- February 17, 1938, Dallas Daily Herald,
Sec. I, p. 12, col. 5.
Wife of Dr. William Worthington Samuell.
Parents: Thomas Lovell and Theresa Bagley. Both born in Glasgow, Scotland.
