         IS HEIR TO MANY THOUSANDS
         
         MRS. SARAH A. WOODRUFF is Confined in
           Northampton Insane Asylum
           
         Springfield, March 7 - JAMES H. LEWIS of this
       city, agent of the board of overseers of the poor,
       received word today that MRS. SARAH A. WOODRUFF,
       formerly of Huntington and Springfield, but an
       inmate of the Northampton insane asylum, is heir
       to a large part of the estate of the late JUDGE
       LEWIS of Westfield, her uncle.
         MRS. WOODRUFF'S parents are dead. AGENT LEWIS
       will see that a guardian is appointed over her
       so that she can inherit the property, which is
       said to reach well up into the thousands. MRS.
       WOODRUFF was formerly MISS SARAH A. GRISWOLD.
       She was born in Huntington and married EDSON R.
       WOODRUFF of South Hadley on Jan. 1, 1895. The
       marriage is said to be illegal, as MR. WOODRUFF
       was married before, and had been granted a di-
       vorce nisi, which was not made absolute until
       May 7, 1895.
