BANKS, DANIEL B.
An opinion has been filed by Judge Dennis, in the Circuit Court, of Baltimore, construing the will of Daniel B. Banks, who died January 20, 1875, leaving an estate valued at about $500,000. The question before the court was as to the operation of the proviso in the will as to the share of Frank Godwin, grandson of the testator, who died under the age of twenty-one years. Judge Dennis holds that the proviso is good, and that the share of the grandson was diverted by his death to the heirs of Daniel B. Banks. The court also holds that the interest of Andrew Banks, son of the testator, in the share of Frank Godwin did not pass to the trustee in insolvency of Andrew Banks. The case will be taken to the Court of Appeals. Mr. Banks owned valuable property both in Baltimore county and city. –– Baltimore County Democrat, December 25, 1897

BEIDEMAN, EMMA FRANCES
A habeas corpus case was tried before judge Fowler on Saturday last involving the right of custody of Emma Frances Beideman, aged about 14 years. The child's parents died about four years ago and she was taken in charge by her mother's sister, Mrs. Mary E. Randall, of Waverly. About two months ago the child went on a visit to another aunt, Mrs. Martha A. Snowden, sister of Mrs. Randall, who resides near Greenwood, in the 11th district of this county. While there she wrote to her aunt, Mrs. Randall, that she would not return. According to her evidence, Mrs. Randall sent her son, Frank Randall, for her, who when informed by Emma that she would not return, attempted to take her by force. Failing in that he beat her severely and she was laid up in bed for several days. The writ was issued at the instance of Mrs. Randall and directed to Mrs. Snowden. After hearing the testimony on both sides the court directed that the child remain in the custody of Mrs. Snowden until after the indictment, which has already been found against Frank Randall, for assault, is disposed of. Mr. Eugene Burton represented the petitioner and Mr. A. A. Piper the respondents. Since the habeas corpus proceedings, Mr. Piper has been appointed guardian of the child by the Orphans' Court. –– Baltimore County Democrat, 29 Sept 1888
