GIRL GETS RACK HER LAM)
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF. Jan., ?
-Miss Sybil Powers, ceased being i
‘poor little rich girl” when the Super
ior Court here gave her legal posses
sion of valuable property. The case,
which extended over three years,
reads like a fairy tale.
According to Attorney M. K. Ha'
risen, representing Miss Powers, she
became the ward of Mrs. Kate C.
Perry just prior to inheriting the es
tate from her parents. The day Miss
Powers became eighteen years of age.
according to papers filed in the case,
Mrs. Perry took her to an attorney’*
office, where she secured a promisory
note, together with absolute right to
all rental# and income from the prop
erty. From that time on. according
to testimony in court, Mrs. Perry kept
Miss Powers in the dark as to finan
cial matters. The girl finally demand
ed her property only to find it tied
up in a maze of legal complications.
She then began suit to recover the es
tate.
