THE BEACH WILL MAY BE CONTESTED

The settlement of the will of Stephen Beach, of Lima, which has been in progress for some time, has been deferred until Dec 20[?] in Judge Watkins' court. It is very likely that a contest of the will will then be begun.  Stephen Beach was 71 years old when he made his will naming his son W.J. Beach as executor and giving him 120 acres of farm land.  In addition, he gave Sarah Arxley, of Dexter, $2,000, his grandson, Leigh Beach, of Lima, $1,000, and his son, E.J. Beach, of Chelsea, $500.  It is the latter who is expected to start a suit in the probate court on Dec. 20 unless some settlement is effected before that time.
