MYTHICAL Jj'OllTUINES.
Improbable Storioa of Great En-
liah Legacies.
ii OM letter Tbaf R veals the SewrrU.
one Beheme Eaaployed by Sharks In
Thla Country for DaploB Crd
uloas Americans.
Some recent romantic tales about im
mense English estates which belong' to
American heirs suggest republication
of an opinion written by Judah P. Ben
jamin twenty-six years ago, says the
Chicago Herald. Following Is the great
lawyer's letter:
"Lamb Buildinff, Temple, London,
Feb. 3, 1869. Editor New Orlans
Times: Will you permit me tnrougn
your columns to send a word of warning ucm yt& fa its healing powers. It re-
to ine puDno agaiunv a moves tne poison ana Dunas up tne sysicm
a
swindling which is now extensively
practiced in the United States?
"Since my call to the English bar
hundreds of letters have reached me
from Louisiana and other parts of the
union, written by persons, many
s
whom are educated and intelligent,
making inquiries relative to estates
represented as existing in this country
unclaimed and awaiting . tne appear
ance of heirs residing in America.
In every instance that has come to my
knowledge the statements are false,
and evidently made for the purpose of
defrauding parties out of sums, large
or small, under pretext of paying the
costs of records, copies, etc., said to be
necessary for the assertion of the pre
tended claim.
'One claim may be selected as an ex
ample. A banker by the name of
James Wood died in Gloucester in the
year 1836, leaving a fortune of about
$800,000. His will was the subject of
much litigation, but finally decided to
be valid, and the estate was ordered to
be divided among the legatees under a
decision of the house of lords in 1847,
Anyone desirous of having particulars
of the litigation can trace it tnrougn
the different charts, as follows: 1. In
the prerogative court of " Canterbury
(Canterbury) reported in 2 Curteiss,
p. 82. 2. On appeal to the privy coun
cil in 3 'Moore's Privy Council Cases,'
at p. 835; and 8. In the house of lords;
in the case entitled 'The Corporation of
Gloucester vs. Osborne,' 1 'House of
Lords Cases,' p. 272. Although his es
tate has thus been finally settled and
distributed for more than twenty years,
I do not at all exaggerate in stating
that not a month pauses without my re
ceiving one or more letters front per
sons who are approached by some pre
tended agent of some imaginary great
firm of London solicitors engaged in
seeking heirs of the great intestate
banker, James Wood, whose fortune,
amounting to 10,000,000, is lying in the
Bank of England awaiting a claimant
"The usual mode of proceeding adopt
ed is to propose to undertake the busl
ness free of expense, the proposer to
receiver only a share of what may be
recovered. This seems so reasonable
that in most cases the dupe readilv
swallows tne Daik A snort time after
ward he is informed that all Inquiries
and researches have resulted favorably,
and that nothing is wanted to insure
success except the cost of a few copies
of records and other papers, and that
the proposer, having already incurred
great expense in conduotluK tne neces
sary Inquiries and researches, is left
without resources at the very moment
when a few pounds would suflloe to
secure the frultaof his labors and expen-

persons engaged in this system k-
vi-ry great, and the sums received by
thi-in very considerable, if at all in pro
portion to the number of letters re
ceived here on the subject. Many
thousands of pounds are known to have
been expended by those) who could ill
afford to bear the loas in the pursuit of
the great Jennings estate; and some of
thus who have spent money In this
way have actually been deluded Into
writing to me their convictions that
they were entitled to dialotlgs the prev
ent duke of Marlborough from the
llli-iilirlio castle, by virtue nf their de
scent from the famous Duchess Sarah
Jennings. Moat of the persons who are
duprv.1 are ignorant on two points,
which, In nearly every Instance, would
salUfy them at once of the utter folly
of the hopes they Indulge. The firat is
that an alien cannot be an heir la Eng
land when there Is no will and thst he
cannot take real estate even if left to
him by will. The swoond la that In
England estates devolve upon the eld
eat sou alone, and on bis eldest mm in
sncreaaion, and are not divided la shares
among all children as In Lmiialana and
other states. Yet nothing Is mare rota
nmn than for prrnons to aaaert heirship
to the suppuoetl shares, of younger
brothers end slaters, or to claim as na
tives of th I nlU-d (States hrlrahlp to
Engliahmra who had left no wills.

he was tremulous with agitation. ' The
case of the Canadian premier's death at
vVlniisor-was at once recalled, and there
ia alwsys something- soothlnff to the
pop) tb auvthtnff which connects, as
the cjumn's ana hiaown jubilee did. the '
court of Itome and the wourt of Kn.r-1
land. The fact is that the fltir-. of the
queen of England has always held a 10-'
nisntic corner In the heart of Leo XIIL
The queen was then and has always
remained la bis memory youDf
womsn, with the prestige of being not
only the queen of England, but the
head of a formidable church, when the
nuncio saw her at the court of King
Leopold In Urusacls. Once again he
saw her tn her own Jondon at a
state reception, at which, however, he
was not specially presented to her.
That was In tlio month of February,
lKeOa month which he spent in Lon
don, for the flrat two days aa the guest
of the marquis of Lisbon, the llrazlltan
minister, who accompanied him from
Ilruaaels to London, and afterward in
apartments In one of the streets of IMc
cad illy, the name of which he cannot
recall. Indeed, the only house eieept
Iluckingham palace and the haute of
commons which ht ran be certain that
he visited Is the Cambridge house of old
days In Itceadllly.whlther he was taken
by the Auatrtan ambajiur to a rwcep
