THURSDAY, JUNE 9th.. 1921 • s THE BAKER ESTATE FRAUD A few weeks ago there. appeared in our daily ''diapers a fascinating story about a. great "estate" (iii the United States,�where . there are a lot of. great things, real and imaginary) . which was about to he divided among• its lleirs-at=law. This estate was said to consist ^of a large block Of land ;in the city . of Philadelphia, and.- other properties in the : ` Eastern States 'T,he land,according•"to the -story had been given on lease for 9b' years.' and the lease,. being about to expire, the property, .now valued at about eight hundred million. dollars, ivouLd he divided among the descendants of the original, owner. , With a share in'such .prodigious wealth in view, Bakers in 'eveiy. cor- • nor of the country have been endeav- •oring to trace relationship with this fortunate Col. Jacob Baker 'who,"99 years ago, owned' the aPhiladelphia property. . , 'The.. estate, it appears, is as myth- ical as . the gold-filled' boxes of !cap- tain Captain Kidd, or the sunken treasure ships of the Spanish pirates. According to the Philadelphia Ev- ening Bulletin, the Baker Estate rec- ently developed a new feature... It was. reported that besides the • enor- mously valuable • real estate; ...there" was a' package of great ' value being held by the authorities of the state' of Pennsylvania for the heirs. of Cbl. Baker. It •appears that a .hopeful• resident of an 'Ontario' town wrote to the. Attorney General enquiring. About the :"Valuable package":and • the other property. The • Attorney - General' .replied that so.. far as , he could learn; the state was not custod- ian of any. package belonging •to the Baker Estate, and that there is no information ,' about such a. legacy,' which is✓ regarded as a' myth. Other authoritative evidence to the ,same effect has also been submitted. The. excitement 'will now .,quieten down, and we Can imagine the " disillusioned prospective heirs-returning_toAhe_orT_ dinary pursuits of life.
