Ashes Are
Endangered;
$10,000 Sought
NEW YORK, Pel). 7 If there is j
one thins Mrs. Alwina Abner: ;> par i
ticiil.tr about It is the ashd*, of her
husbands. Sha ha3#had a 1 f hardj
luck with unns, anyhow, so wh “n
she found the top of the marble
block •In which were all that is left
of Husband No. 1, John Arbarch,
and No. 2. Goor.sc Parbs, made
her think of No. 3. Ahmasrt, and the
empty ttrn he left behind in 1907.1
She is past 8') years old, now. She
hns sued the United States Crema
tory Company for $10,000 Inmages.
Emanuel M. •Steiadl r is counsel far;
Mrs. Ahnert. I
Ahnert, husband No. 3. convinced
his wife in the financial panic of
19n7 lhat banks were unsafe, said
Mr. St find lor, and built a concrete
vault in the cellar of hor house. Mrs.
Ahnert took her money and securities
out of savings banks and put all in
the home vault. When she canto
home Christmas evcmlng, 1307, the
vault was empty. Ahnert. said Mr.
Steimllcr, has been missing since
then.
Mrs. Ahnert went to Fresh Pond
to see her family ashes vault the j
Other day. She reports In her
sworn complaint that she found the
marble top off the marble sarcopha
gus and nothing but a wad of ab
sorbent cotton on top of tIt■■ ashes'
of No. 1 an i No. 2. The sarcophagus,!
she declares, was not in the Colum-!
baria, where she had an eternal !
lease for it—just liko a cemetery lot j
- but was standing under a staircase I
near a door a drafty place, she calls
it, where vagrant winds easily might
have blown away some of No. 1 j
or No. 2. and even perhaps have
mixed both.
The shock upset her. The guaran-j
tees of security for the remains of I
her dead had been broken, she com-1
plains, and she did not feci safe!
about her own ashes. Hence her;
demand for $10,000 damages.
