Second Document.
.Intimate friends -of the late John
Neal, district manager of the R. J
Reynolds Tobacco company, whose
will revealed his great wealth and
made Margaret Caldwell Shotwell,
13, Central high school freshman,
beneficiary of stock valued at ,$180,'
000, declared they were almost posi
five he had made a second will
which, if it comes to light, will su
persede the wUl low on file in pro
bate court.
Gray Sheek, long-standing friend
of the wealthy tobacco man and
successor to his place as manager
of the Reynolds company here, as
serts Mr. Neal told him shortly be-
fore his death that he had made
provisions for Sheek to share-in his
estate.
Positive of' New Will.
Mr. Sheek is "almost- positive"
there is a new will on file in some
Omaha attorney's ' office that will
change several of ' the beneficiaries
named in the Ieal will of March
f "1919. He is positive, he says, that
at least two of the men name:! in
the will now on file had ceased to
be considered "friends by Nea!.
"Neal and I had been close friends
for marry years, said Mr. Sheek. "I
lirst met him in 1907 at Winston
, Salem, N. C, where we were both
working for the Reynolds company.
lie came to Omaha m 1915 and
followed the next year to assist
him." When Neat's body was taken
to Wmston-Salem' Sleek accom
panied it and took charge of most
cf his affairs. .
Substantiates Sheek Claim.
L Mrs. Ray Jr Beselin, whose hus
band is,manager of the H. Beselin
& Sens Tobacco company, substan
tiated Mr. Jsheek s claim that a new
will exists by declaring that Neal
told her he had made provisions for
Sheek to share in his estate.
"Mr. Neal told me he had jr
; ranged to leave Mr. Sheek a large
sum ot money, said Mrs. Beselin.
''but that he had provided he should
not acquire it until he had married.
He feared some woman would get
it away from Gray unlfcss Gray was
, married.
"I was one of the few who knew
oi air. iNeais weaitn. ne was a
friend of Mr. Beselin's and he often
asked me to do things for him. I'
't paid his income tax and I knew how
very wealthy he was. -
Injured by Train :
"Within the last few months he
often asked hie to go with hira to
some good attorney, sa he could
settle up his affairs. I always told
him that was a personal matter, so
1 don't know whether he went or
not. But r think he did.
"Mr.. Neal was not a recluse, but
lie urn not care tor women. He
- spent money freely, often having five
or six suits tailored at the same
time. ' He was very sensitive about
his lame leg. His foot was cut off
v at the ankle by a train when he was
just a boy.
." Surprised At Wealth. v
majority of Neal's close acquain
tances expressed great surprise when
they read of his large estate in The
Bee '- last night. For three years
, he occupied a moderate priced room
in the Hotel Loyal, and always lived
iu an- unassuming manner.
He" seldom used .an automobile,
but purchased cars for his' salesmen.
He often limped into "downtown
cigar stores to make-sales himself,
and usually carried a packagey of
. Camel-cigarets, which yvas a leader
I lor the Reynold's company.
Rumor has it it was "he who
named the well-known brand, Cam
els. A friend expressed, the xdesire
for a.' drink 'and as there was no
" liquor procurable Mr. Neal is said
to have' handed kith a cigaret, re
markinlgvhat "there's nothing to
drink.sjiave a camel's cigaret."
The brand whicli he gave fo his
. friend had not sold successful until
' its nameshad bjcen changed, to Camel,
it is said .. . i. .
. tost Valuable Ring.
, ' Acquaintances: ,wcreg rcatly iin
' pressed by a large diamond ring
which Mr. Neal wore, and which Sie
valued at $5,000. He was wont to
take the ring from his finger and
cast it away back, in the days before
prohibition was known, friends say.
and on xme occasion the ring was
lost. ,v
He secured the arrest of two men
- whom he Suspected of taking the
'ring but who, later proved their in
nocence, and it was on this oc
casion he acquired the services of
. Franklin A. Shotwell. attorney, who
f is now an executor of his estate.
Shrouded in Mystery, x
Mr. -Neal's birth aiid earlylife -are
shrouded irr even deeper mystery
than his more recent life in Omaha.
The death certificate, on file in the
. city hall, shows that his birthplace
was Winston-Salem, N. .C, that his
age was 36, and that his father's.
- name was "Ivetl" and his mother's
unknown. He wajs raised in an
orphan asylum, at Winston-Salem.
Mrs. Beselin says he was related
to R. J. Reynolds, president of the
R. J. Reynolds Tobacco company,
and that on Reynold's death Neal
was left a large fortune. . v
Mr. Neal had told friends Rey
nolds merely took an interest in him
and., advanced him rapidly. Mrs.
Beselin says Neal has blood relatives
in Winston-Salem, who may attempt
to break the will, especially if an
other and later will is not discov
ered. ' t
Sought Home Atmosphere.
- - Although Mr. Neal was apparently
not fond of the companionship, of
the fairer sex he was a prominent
figure in numerous parties hich
have livened the night life of Oma
ha in; years past, friends say. 11
AS' a-reaction to these escapades
he often expressed, longing for a
home atmosphere.
( "He was a good spender and a
good felow," declared Mr. Sheek,
. "Yet he was' unassuming and few
guessed he was wealthy. He- was
- a member of the Athletic' cluband
lived for a time. at the Hotels Black
stone, and Fontenelle. ; : '

First and foremost, the Salvation

has aroused any public - comment

the public generally' is not
aware of the work beTncarried on

lic does not know, fox, instance, that
annually, hundreds of girls from ev

Omaha maternity home, to become
mothers. Secondly, the) public does
not know what these same young

It might appear that, this restric
tion 'as carrying - things & ex
tremes, but, according: to Adjutant
Lillie Ness, the. matron m charge,)
her experiences in the past " fully
warrant this unusual precaution, for
by this means, no girl leaving the
home can ever tell the family or
friends of any unfortunate gisl any
thing concerning her temporary visit
to the home or its purpose. f
Another potential feature of '.the
Rescue and Maternity homer is the
number of babies' lives saved an
nually. The babies arc taken there
from the baby-saving institutes .of
this city. It is conservatively esti
mated that from 75 to 100 cases
annually are taken Ho the home suf
fering from acute malnutrition, due
largely to the fact that they are un
able to obtain mother's milk.

Letter Leads
Son to Father
After 18 Years
( . !
Omaha Man, Driven From
Home by Quarrels With
Wife, Later Declared Le
gally Dead, Is Found.
The Undine of a time-stained en
velope iiv a trunk belonging to his
father, William P. Ham, a fortner
resident of Omaha, who disappeared
for the second time 18 years ago,
and who was declared legally dead
by the probate and district court of
Richardson - county, Nebraska, has
led to the restoration of the missing
father. to his son, Elmer Ham, of
Shubert, Neb. ,
The envelope also revealed a, ro
mantic story of domestic tragedy
that has seldom beelrcqualed in his
tory., William P. Ham, now 80 years of
age, was bom at FarmingtonyN. H.
He came from seafaring forbears of
revolutionary stock. When the civil
war broke out he was one of the
first to respond to the call for volun
teers and enlisted in the famous
Fifth New Hampshire infantry.
Leaves, Then Returns.
At the close of Hie war he re
turned to his home in New England,
where he was married, and in the
late '60's he moved with his bride"
to Omaha. Four childrcmwere born
to them here, but despite the addi
tion of these olive branches to the
domestic circle, there was discord
between .Ham and his wife. In 1879
he deserted his wife and four chil
dren, and when he disappeared he
left considerableproperty. His wife
procured a decree of divorce from
him as a result of this desertion and
remained a divorcee until 1884, when
Ham suddenly reappeared in Omaha
and effected a reconciliation with his
former spouse.
Court Rules Him Dead.
They lived' happily for a time
and then moved to Shubert, Neb.
Again ilomestic discord arose in the
home and in 1902 Ham disappeared
the second time. Although he had
accumulated a fue estate, he be
came a wanderer and after the lapse
of a fewiyears a suit was entered in
the probate court -of Richardson
county to administer his estate. .'The
findings of the., prNbatd court were
upheld by the district court of that
cctunty anfl Ham was declared le
gally dead.
His wife passed away in the mean
time. One day a few weeks ago,
his; son, Elmer Ham, living at Shu
bert, had occasion to cljan out the
attic of the old family home. He
found among other reminders of
the past, an old ' trunk which had
been the property of his missing
father. He opened the receptacle
and discovered an envelope, stained
bv time, which was addressed to a
sister of his father at Farmington,
N. H. - i
y Roams the World.
- Elmer had forgotten the .exist
ence of the relative,, and with a de
sire to see hecand to learn from
her, if possible, the fate of his
fathe'r, ff? left, unannounced for the
ancestral home in New England.
He not only found the aunt, but his
nijissing father and there was a joy
ful rpnnion. .-
According to the story of the
rprrcant narent. after he had left Ne
braska, he became a wanderer and
traveled to all parts of the earth. In
kh youth he had been a Wayfarer
arid he made his way at the time of
the second desertion of his family, to
San Francisco, where he became a
sailor on a freighter that was en
gaged- in the South beas trade, it
was a tramp and in several of the
ctnnses he made years had elapsea
since he had set -foot on his native
shores. .. In the;- meantime he had
been thoroughly weaned' from his
family. A few years ago old age
and decrepitude forced him to leave
the sea and he retired to lus child
hoofl home, at Farmington. N. H.
He had been drawing a pension of
$60 per.month from the government
pr several years. William P. Ham
is a cousin of the late Henry Wil
son, who was vice president of the
United States under Ulysses S.
Grant. v f
