Rosenberry, Isaac - 1857

Estate of William Lane, dec’d.
Bedford County, SS.

At an Orphan’s Court, held a Bedford, in and for the County of Bedford, on the 16th day of November, A. D., 1857, before the Judges of the same Court –
The petition of John Mower and S. L. Russell, Administrators de bonis non, cum testamento annexo of William Lane, late of said County, dec’d, was read and filed, setting forth, that in pursuance of an order of this Court, they made sale of all the Real Estate of the said dec’d, so far as they then knew, and the money arising therefrom was applied to the payment of the debts of said dec’d, so far as the same were reached, that they have lately been informed that the said William Lane owned a body of unimproved wood land in Letterkenny Township, Franklin County, adjoining lands of Isaac Rosenberry , and others containing 2000 acres or thereabouts, that debts to a considerable amount, not less than $3,200, against the estate of said deceased yet remain unpaid, and praying the Court to make a decree authorizing them to raise, say $3,500, if possible, from the said Real Estate in Franklin County.

Whereupon, on motion of S. L. Russell, Esq., the Court grant a Rule upon the heirs, and all parties interested to be and appear at an Orphans’ Court, to be holden at Bedford, on the 2d Monday, 8th day of February, next, and show cause, if any they have, why a decree should not be made by the Court, pursuant to the prayer of the petitioners.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and the seal of our said Court at Bedford, the 19th day of November, A. D., 1857.

D. Washabaugh, Clerk.
Dec. 18, 1857.-d
