YEISER MAY YET BE A LORD If He Mlnra Jada'hlp He May Land Porta with Title At. tarhed. Judge Yelser or Lord Yelaer, which? John O. Yelser Is In the peculiar position of not knowing whether he Is a plain law yer, candldated for a $2.no judgeship or a rival of John D. Rockefeller In wealth and heir apparent to a lordship and an estate In Ireland. The estate. If there Is one, Is that of Lord Dlllard, who died about 100 years go, leaving property declared after the lapse of a century to be of fabulous value. Mr. Yelser's grandfather was Rev. Ryland T. Dlllard of Lexington. Ky who was born In Virginia about 196 and died in Lexington In 187S. The story of the big estate comes from the Lexington Dlllards and Is related aa follows In the Lexington Herald: Like a fairy legend of poor people coming into Immense fortunes and becoming kings and queens Is the story of Professor C. W. Matthls of 769 Eighth street, and Mra. Annie E. Gore of 1618 Wllllama street, wlP expect to come Into the tremendous estate of Lord Dlllard of Ireland,- from whom they claim direct descent. Although a hundred years have passed since the death of Lord "Dll lard. none of his descendants have at tempted to secure the Immense fortune, which Is one of the largest estates In the world. From father to son the story of the grea estate has been handed down, and each In his turn has dreamed of the tre mendous wealth which should be his Own. Professor Matthls and Mrs. Gore have made a serious attempt to secure the wealth, and expect to be entitled to It In a few years. C'larenoe Brown of Elisabethtown has writ ten the officials In Dublin, and the records of the family will be opened and com pared with those kept here through many generations, for the family has kept trace of their ancestors back to the American Revolution, when Lord Dil lard's son came to this country and fought for the liberty of America from English rule. In 1780 Lord Dlllard died, leaving a vast estate, which comprisec 1,C00 acres of fertile land and many homes near Dublin. His son, William Dlllard, had come to America in I'M and settled in Virginia. He enlisted in the Revolutionary war under General Israel Putnam and was killed In the battle of Bunker Hill. His son, James Dlllard, moved to Kentucky and was one of the founders of Ellzabethtown. His daughter Nancy married John Matthls and was the mother of Prof. Matthls and Mrs. Gore. Besides these two In Louisville, Ky., Mrs. Mandy Brown of Cecelia. Ky., and Mrs. Maggie Rayne of Mlssqurl will In herit shares of the fortune, which has been the byword of the family for years back. A. P. Culley of Iup City. Neb., a nephew of Mrs. Gore, will start for Ireland In sev eral months to determine the status of the estate. Prof. Matthls la a graduate of Bradenburg academy and a doctor of phil osophy. - He Is an applicant for a Carnegie pension for aged teachers. Mrs. Gore's husband waa Lieutenant Dennis Gore, U. 8. A, Similarity of family given names Is also marked and Is further evidence of Mr. Yelser's connection with the family, "I am not worrying much about the money," said Mr. Yelser, diacuaslng the story, "but I think I will be able to es tablish my right to put an apostrophe after the O In my name. All the money I get from this estate I will spend right here in Omaha." It is reported that other heirs are taking steps to establish their right to a part of the old estate.
