Chitten den, a veteran of the Indian wars In the Northwest, and who lives at the Oregon Soldiers' Home In West Roseburg, received a letter from his daughter with which the lady en closed a letter from an attorney at Minneapolis, Minn., who said that an estate of $180,000 had just been left by a deceased member of the Chit tenden family to charitable Institu tions, but that In all probability the will was invalid. If set aside the property will go to descendents ol four sons of Nathan Chittenden, who was born at Green River, N. Y., on May 17, 1771. His four sons were Obial, Johnson, Austin and Daniel D The letter further said: "1 am send ing you this thinking that possibly you are a descendent of Austin Chit tenden, born In 17DS, who finally be came a merchant at Portland, Ore gon, where he died In 1KG5, leaving two sons and two daughters." The surmise of the Minneapolis at torney was correct. The old Indian war veteran, W. L. Chittenden, whose daughter received the Inquiry Is a son of Austin Chittenden, and was horn June 23, 18U:. and came West with his father In the very early days of Oregon's history. The other son and two daughters who survived Austin Chittenden. hav long years ago followed their father to the great beyond, leaving tho old veteran, now 7I years of age, sole survivor of Austin Chittenden's fam ily. As near as can he ascertained there are now only a very few left who will receive any part in the estate above mentioned, so that the old soldier, who In spite of "! yean of life is still hale and hearty, wil receive $.'!. 000 or $3li.(MI0 as hi: share of the property when It Is fin ally distributed among the heirs. sol ium:!, poiso.v.
