John C. Stemler of Matawan, who died last month, made a will leaving his farm at Matawan and his personal property to his son, Louis H. Stemler. Louis is to pay his brother, Christian F. Stemler, $1,500 within one year. The interest on another $1,500 at the rate of five per cent per annum is to be paid to Louis H. Stemler’s sister, Mrs. Rose E. Anderson, as long as she should live. At the death of Rose Anderson this $1,500 is to be paid to her children.
