IN RE:-ESTATE OF JOHN F.C09PER,: NO.63-69-64 PETITION BY ADMINISTRATOR FOR LEAVE TO PURCHASE UNDER SECTION 3351 AND.'935'6 OF·'THE'DECEDENTS'ESTATES AND FIDUCIARIES CODE AS AMENDED The Petition of Robert L.Cooper respectfully represents: 1)Your Petitioner is Robert L.Cooper,who was appointed Administrator of the Estate of John F.Cooper by the Register of Wills of Washington County,Pennsylvania,on May 27,1969. 2)The decedent,John F.Cooper,resided in the Township of Fallowfield,Washington County,Pennsylvania,and died intestate on December 8,1959. 3)The decedent left to survive him,his spouse, Florence Staup Cooper,whb,thus became seized of a 1/3 interest in and to his estate,and,the following fourteen (14)children who became seized of the remaining 2/3 interest in equal 1/14 shares.'Insofar as your Petitioner is able to determine, the correct addresses and residences of such children are accurately set forth: Dorothy Jean Carroll,daughter R.D.#4 Box 34B Belle'Vernon,PA 15012 Mr.John C.Cooper,'son 617 Fourth Street Charleroi,PA 15022 Mr.Henry V.Cooper,son R.D.#2 Charleroi,PA 15022 Frances C.Rhodes,daughter R.D.#2 Box 596 Monongahela,PA 15063 Mary Ellen McGavitt,daughter R.D.#1 Coal Center,PA 15423 Mr.Robert L.Cooper,son R.D.#2 Charleroi,PA 15022 Betty Jane Padovich,daughter 411 Pearl Street Monessen,PA 15062 Kay Donna Kennedy,daughter Elco,PA 15434 Kathleen Podany,daughter 154 N.Ridgland Road Wallingford,Connecticut 06492 Ruth Ann Rudy,daughter Stockdale,PA 15427 Mr.Harry James Cooper,son Stockdale,PA 15427 Carol Lee Butler,daughter 31 Poplar Street New Haven,Connecticut 06473 Sandra Lee McLuckie,daughter Box 261 G Monongahela,PA 15063 Mr.Charles William Cooper,son R.D.#2 Box 438 G Charleroi,PA 15022 4)All of the foregoing children are alive. -2- , ";iI; i ·... I'.1 i' '., , 5)The sole ~nd singular asset~of the estate of vacant lots,unipcumbered by any buildings. 6)The real estate has been appraised by competent appraisers,and the affidavits of value which~are attached hereto and made a part hereof as Exhibit "B",demonstrate the value of such real estate to be Four Hundred and 00/100 ($400.00) Dollars as of the date of the death of the decedent. 7)All of the parties and interests are sui juris. 8)The property is assessed for tax purposes as follows: 9)Your Petitioner avers and sets forth that the debts of the estate exceed the value of the estate and are I i~ I i (a)Lots 206 and 208 (b)0.83 acres $60.00 $25.00 comprised wholly of administrative costs.No formal claim or any other debt has ever been laid before your Petitioner as administrator,although he has publically advertised the opening of the estate as required by law. 10)This estate has remained open for many years and because of the divisible interests in which the estate is divided and the rather insignificatit value,your petitioner has been ~nable to close the estate since the real estate,subject matter of this petition,has little intrinsic value,because of its location,size and relative unimportance.It is located immediately adjacent to premises of which Florence Staup Cooper, ..-3- the decedent's wife,died seized,which has a greater value because of the location of a dwelling thereon. 11)Your petitioner avers and believes that by virtue of the small value of this estate,that consolidated with t~e adjacent real estate owned by the decedent,Florence Staup Cooper,it has an increased value,and together they are more properly considered more valuable for sale purposes. 12)Accordingly,your Petitioner prays that this Petition be consolidated with the Petitioner filed in the Estate of Florence Staup Cooper at No.63-69-1446,and that the Court make a determination on the prayer of this Petition in~imilar manner as it will make a determination on the Petition filed in said Estate. 13)Your Petitioner avers and believes that the sum of Four Hundred and 00/100 ($4oo.ob)Dollars is a fait and reasonaRle offer for the real estate which is included in the offer made for the sale of the real estate of which R16rence Staup Cooper died seized,and that your Petitioner has received no better offer from any heir or other interested parties, although he has made written inquiries of all persons.Further, your Petitioner av.ers and sets forth.that the sum is a fair and reasonable sum to allocate to the estate of John F.Cooper out of the total purchase price,which is represented by the sales agreement entered into between the prospective purchasers and is in line with the appraised value of the real esta~e. WHEREFORE,your Petitioner prays your Honorable Court to consolidate this petition with the petition filed at No.63- 68-1446,and to enter a final decree after due and timely notice -4- is given to all parties,authorizing and giving leave to your 1 Petitioner to purchase said property for the sum of Four·Hundred and 00/100 ($400~00)Dollars out of the total purchase price set forth in the agreement attached,and to allocate the sum of Four Hundred and 00/100 ($400.00)Dollars to the estate of John F.Cooper,and further,to direct the Clerk of the Orphans Court to deliver a deed to your Petitioner,Robert L. Cooper and Janet Cooper,his wife,upon payment of the purchase money in the amount of Four Hundred and 00/100 ($400.00)Dollars into the estate of John F.Cooper.

MR.WOODWARD:If the Court please,this is the return date set in the estate of Florence Staup Copper,deceased,for the Petiti n by the Administrator for leave to purchase.I have an Affidavit of Service of Notice of the hearing to all persons concerned.It is signed by Mr.Bassi and the return receipts are there for all of the persons named. 2 THE COURT:Mr.Woodwardl how does the John F.Cooper estate ;fit in with this?Are you acqua inted with that? MR.WOODWARD:NOI I am notl Your Honor.I see that they ha\i e set forth in the Petition that the estate is comprised solely and wholly of the real estate and valued at $51 600.00,and that the Affidavits have been furnished by two non-partisan persons and it's a Petition for him to buy.I don't know how---I can probably find out for Your Honorl but as of right now I I don't know just how it--- I notice the notation here that Charles W.Cooperl Henry V.Cooper John C.Cooper and Mary Ellen McGavitt have signed consents for this sale. THE COURT: MR.WOODWARD: Yes l I see that. I don't seem to find anything additional to throw any light on this. THE COURT: MR.WOODWARD: In d:he estate of John F.Cooper-- I find the deed here or a copy of the deed herE between John Wisel Trusteel to John F.Cooper of Fallowfield Township.Then I believe that that was probably deeded to FlorencE Stau.p Cooper after death.Robert L.Cooper---this might help,sir--- is the Administrator of the estate of Florence Stau p Cooper and he is also the Administrator of the estate of John F.Cooper.I noticed that here also.That may help some. 3 THE COURT:In the estate of John Cooper,the pro pe rty ha been appraised at $5,600.00.And that,of course~includes the hom and soforth.Now in the estate of Florence Staup Cooper,it would appear that all they have there is an adjoining piece of land which is valued at ---it's 0.83 acres on Lot 206 and 208 and that's all valued to enter a final decree after due and timely notice,authorizing Your Petitioner in this Florence Cooper estate,prays the Court at $400.00.

SANDRA BASTIN:No,sir.I'm a daughter of the deceased, 4 John and Florence.And there's quite a few ques tions I haven't had answered.Like settling the estate,when my brother Robert came around,the impression was with the family,he was going to settle the estate,Florence Staup Cooper,which takes my mother's home and one lot.Now we agreed to set him up as the Executor and give sat idle,but taxes were paid by my mother and the estate. him Power of Attorney.Well then,nobody notified us about my father's land,which he has been deceased for ten years,and it has ): lJ2 2IIII 2~t'lZXOJ<I:~ THE COURT:Now before we continue any further,may we have your name please,?

SANDRA BASTIN: Yes.Now certainly you folks didn't think tha No,but see,we were under the impression that the land was going to be left just the way it was temporarily. Because when Robert came to us he said that he wanted to settle my mother's estate.So we agreed because nobody even considered the land at the present.I understand that the house isn't much good, you know,without the land.Bu.t we also u.nderstand tha t there may 5 be a road go through there. THE COURT:What is you r pos ition now,Mrs.Bastin? SANDRA BASTIN:I just stepped forward to say my piece.Like I said,I didn't understand a lot of things that was done and I figured that I should step forward and ask the questions if I don't understanc them. this property to the petitioner.Areyou opposed to that sale at that price or not?

THE COURT:You donft feel that the price that is proposed here is enough? FRANCES RHODES:No,sir,it isn't. THE COURT:Well,do you have anyone tha t would bid more for that property? FRANCES RHODES: THE COURT: FRANCES RHODES: THE COURT: for today. FRANCES RHODES: Yes. Who might that be? I will myself. Well,that is what we are ca lling this hearing I don't care about my mother's home,b1;1t I 6 do care about the land because I know the ground that my father has is worth more than $400.00.I do know that. THE COURT: yours? NA THLE EN PODA NY: All right.We.got your position.Now what is My name is Kathleen Podany.And I feel the same as my sisters do.I feel as if the land isn't valu·ed enough.I feel that it's worth more than $400.00. THE COURT:A 11 right.Very well.Is there anyone els e that wantS to be heard in these proceedings?Now Mr.Woodward, we now have the comments that have been .made by the parties who appeared.Do you have any response to that?

My sister said they was mis led.When I went Right. But I mean in this petition that has been $6,000.00 for both. That would be $5,600.00 for the home a,nd around to have myself appointed Administrator of that estate,which I told all my sisters that I did not want the home without the ground.
