HEIR TO “WESTLANDS.”
AX ESTATE VALUED AT £3,000.000 (Per Press Association.) Auckland, February 20. In connection with the search for the heir to the estate of “Westlands” in New South Wales, valued at three millions, now being investigated by the Public Trust Office (one of several claimants being Stanley Walters, formerly sorter in the Wellington post office), another claimant John R. Walters, of South Africa, has written to T. W. Hayson, of Auckland, stating that the judicial declaration some few years ago was to the effect that if a certain Richard John Walters could bo found, the estate unquestionably would revert to the writer. His relative, Richard Walters, who was in Mayson’s employment, is said to have known before his death that he was enticed to claim valuable lands in England, but felt too old to bother about money matters.
