Letters of administration wez granted Monday by Surrogate Glea­son in the estate of Ida M. Peters, late of Pleasant Valley. pre­cise value of, the estate is not known, but owing to the fact that the ad­ministrator, Edgar T. Peters, hus­band of the deceased, filed a hond for $14,000, it may be surmised that the property left amounts to about $7,000, it being customary to require a bond twice the value of the es­tate. Mary J. Qdell, mother of the deceased, is the only other survivor-

The w ill of Tamer A. MeVey, late of Beacon, was offered for probate Monday in the office of the Surro­gate. The estate amounts to $1,- 200 of realty and $150 of personal property. Mary Ellen Jackson, a daughter, gets $150; Homer B, MeVey, a son,* receives the same amount; Rose MeVey, a daughter- in-law is given a sewing-machine, and the residuary estate goes toFrank MeVey, son of the deceased. All of the legatees reside in Beacon.
