There is just one matter that I shouil:.Gli like to call to the Court's
attention.At the time that the Inheritance Tax appraiser was at
the Mellon Bank and made an Inventory of the contents of the box,
he included certain bonds that were in the box unde r Series H;
2
whereas,in fact,they were Series E bonds.Now the net result
is the same,in that all of the bonds and everything else go to
Elma Jean Robinson.l-;However,our Inventory and Appraisement
shows those to be Series H bonds,when,in fact,they should have 1:~en
Series E.
We have asked that the Court award the 30 Serie;;
bond that isn't actually there?
Robinson.The Series E Bonds,of course,she has cashed.
included under Series H,Series E Bonds.It's merely a matter
H Bonds,that is that are identifiable as Series H Bonds,to Mr-:s.
Mr.Bane,would we then be awarding a series
Oh,no.No,no.There are actually 30 Series
Chaney on the 9th of January,you will find that he has inadvertentl~
H Bonds.But if you check over the Inventory that was made by Mr.

of clearing up the record so that in the event that Mrs.Robinson
would later want to cash those bonds,the Series H,she would havE
the order of the Court awarding thos e bonds to her.And I didnIt
want to have an order awarding her 42 bonds when there were not 42
bonds in the box.There were only 30.Series H,I mean.Now all
these bonds that are thereon the Inventory were in the box.And
they all have beena.::-ooounted for.
THE COURT:Are these properly identified in the Inventory?
MR.BANE:Oh,yes.
THE COURT:IIT1he Inventory you identify them all as United

States Savings Bonds Series H.
MR.BANE:Not all of them.If you will notice down near the
bottom,Series E Bonds.But some of the Series H should be
transferred down under Series E to make it a proper description of
them.As I say,it makes no difference so far as amount is concerned.

It's just a matter of the designation of Series E Bonds by Mr.Chan~y
as Series H.And there were 30 Series H Bonds and all the rest werle

i~Bonds to Mrs.Robinson.
