The case involves the disposal of Fort Hill, the homestead of John C. Calhoun. When the great nullifier died he left the homestead to his daughter, who was the wife of Thomas G. Clemson. It was occupied by the Clemsons until their death. Mrs. Clemson died before her husband, and left the homestead to him, it is claimed, in trust for her grandchild, Florida Calhoun, daughter of Gideon Lee, a broker of New York city. There is some hitch about the will of Mrs. Clemson, and lawyers are divided as to whether the property passed over to Thomas G. Clemson in fee simple or in trust. Clemson regarded the property as his personal possession, and so disposed of it. There Is a Hitch In the Will. 180 11 .$ 3762 14 In view of the assertions of the widow and mother it is understood that a coroner will be called upon to investigate the case. Undertaker Hawks has embalmed the body because there is so much delay in arranging for the funeral.

Admiral Donaldson entered the navy on July 21, 1835, as a midshipman, and served on the Warren, the Falmouth and the Vandalia in the West India squadron. He received his commission as lieutenant in 1847, and was connected with the Dolphin, Merrimac and Waterwatch. He took part in the capture of New Orleans during the civil war.
