(Covington Friend) The claim of Mrs. Effie Moore, Kingman, against Lemuel Pithoud, administrator of the estate of Gordon Moore, an eleven year old grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Moore, who died several years ago, was heard here in the circuit court on Wednesday. Mrs. Moore had the care of the boy for several years, following the death of his parents, and she filed a claim amounting to $2,092 The administrator allowed her $600, but disallowed the remainder, and an appeal was taken to the court. Upon the evidence submitted, the court allowed her claim in full and she was given a judgement for $1,492.00, which amounts to practically all of the estate that was left the boy by his parents. Mrs. Moore is the mother of Jack Moor of this city, and she often visits here. – jlr
