Little's Will Denied Probate

New York, 1895

Surrogate Petty, of Suffolk county, has denied probate to the will of James C. Little, a New York broker, who died at Huntington more than a year ago. The will was contested by Robert Little, brother of the testator, and Margaret E. Little, his wife, from whom he separated ten years ago.

When Mr. Little died he lived at Huntington with the woman who now poses as his widow. At the hearing testimony was adduced to show that she was the wife of Frederick E. Weir, of Cincinnati, O., from whom it is claimed she had never been divorced.
