Dressmaker Leaves
Estate To Man She
Knew Only 4 Hours
Oshkosh, Wis. . U.R) An
Oshkosh dressmaker who felt
her relatives neglected her has
left an estate of nearly $100,000
to a man she knew for only four
hours. : '
A settlement reached yester
day gave Joseph Kogut, Cuyler,
N.Y., the bulk of Margaret Jor
genson's estate $97,864.
Kogut and Miss Jorgenson met
in a Chicago hotel elevator four
years ago. They started talking,
had lunch together, and parted.
Miss Jorgenson, once a promi
nent dressmaker here, died July
11,. 1951, at the age of 66 with
out ever seeing Kogut again. But
they had corresponded and her
will made Kogut the sole bene
ficiary. Relatives Contest Will
The dressmaker's relatives
contested the will, charging Ko
gut exercised undue influence.
The settlement reached here al
located $61,000 of the estate, to
awards and claims, but still gave
Kogut the lion's share.
Attorney Walter J. Patri, the
estate's executor, estimated Ko
gut would net $40,000 after
taxes. '
Patri told this story of Kogut's
meeting with Miss Jorgenson:
Kogut, an inspector for the
New York Central Railroad, was
in Chicago on business when he
stepped into an elevator at the
Morrison hotel in November,
1950.
Comment on Election
It was the day after election
and a woman in the elevator was
carrying a newspaper headlin
ing the victory of Sen. Everett
Dirksen (R-Hl.).
Kogut commented "the Demo
crats aren't so happy about this."
The woman, Miss Jorgenson,
replied and they fell into con
versation. After sharing lunch,
Kogut left for New York.
A short time later, Miss Jor
genson had Patri draw up a new
will making Kogut, a bachelor in
his middle 40s,' sole beneficiary.
She felt her relatives had neg
lected her, Patri said." ' - .
