| Transcript | Hector M. Hitchings. Melvin G. Palliser. Edward C. Moen. Telephone 5265 Cort HITCHINS, PALLISER & MOEN, Attorneys & Counsellors at Law, Woodbridge Building, 100 William St., N.Y. B.of M. [New York, Borough of Manhattan?] New York, May 17, 1898 Mr. Joshua E. Peel, Armagh, Armagh County, Ireland. Dear Sir : - Mrs Frank Collins, formerly Pauline Brennan daughter of Thomas P. Brennan of your city, has consulted me with reference to a certain inheritance left by her father by Will, the father dying in your City on February 11, 1891, and I presume the Will was probated in your County. She tells me that a Mr. Gallagher, the first name supposed to be Patrick, was the solicitor for her father and read the Will after the funeral. Mrs. Brennan, mother of my client, lives in Chicago as do other of the heirs, while in your City lives the Reverend Bernard Brennan and Catherine Brennan. Some claim is made at the present time that Mrs. Collins has lost her right to her share of the property bequeathed by reason of abandoning her religion for the Protestant, and this is one of the questions I want to look into. If you will procure and send to me an exemplified copy of the Will and probate with your bill for the same at your earliest convenience, you will confer a great favour upon Yours very truly, Hector M. Hitchings |
