Mrs. E. (Sarah) Bedle's Estate Goes to Her Husband.

Mrs. Sarah Bedle, wife of Edward Bedle of Keyport, died April 10th. Her will, which was made January 2d of this year, was probated last week. Mrs. Bedle left two daughters, Edna Cartan, wife of Rens. Cartan of Matawan; and Nedora Heyer, wife of Joseph C. Heyer of Newark, formerly of Holmdel. Edna Cartan received three shares of stock of the Keyport loan association, and her husband, Rens. Cartan, was made executor of the will. Mrs. Bedle's husband, Edward Bedle, is to have the use of the residence property at Keyport as long as he shall live and he is also to have the use of all the household goods and furniture. If the rest of the personal property left by Mrs. Bedle is not sufficient to pay any debts she may leave, then her two daughters are to chip in and pay any balance which may be due. After Mr. Bedle's death the residence property and the household goods and furniture are to be equally divided between the two daughters.
