AN EARL’S FORTUNE.
LEFT AWAY FROM FAMILY. i, THE WILL DISPUTED. By Telegraph.—Press Assti.—Copyright. Received June 25, 5.5 p.m. London, June 23. A love affair of the late Earl of Shrewsbury and Mrs. Brownlee was revealed in the Probate Court. The earl was separated from his wife in 1906 and made the acquaintance of Mrs. Brownlee, who was then a girl of twenty. In 1908 they were attracted to each other with a mutual fondness for sport, animals and racing, afterwards living together. The earl, in September last, revoked his dispositions amounting to £250,000 in favour of the present earl and other members of the family, practically leaving his whole estate to Mrs. Brownlee, and the present earl, through his guardian, the Marquis of Anglesy, is opposing probate. He alleges the late earl was of unsound mind and executed the will under the influence of Mrs. Brownlee. The charge is denied. —Aus.N.Z. Cable Assn.
