The Petition of Martha Huff of the Town of Canadice on the County of Ontario respectfully

hundred and eighty-three; that at the time of his death he was a resident of the County of
Ontario; that he left no will as far as your petitioner has heard, or been able to discover
after diligent search and inquiry therefor; that the decedent died possessed of certain
personal property within this State, the value of which, together with the probable amount to
be recovered, by reason of any right of action granted to an executor or administrator by
special provision of law does not exceed in value the sum of ($1000) one thousand dollars; and
his real property does not exceed in value the sum of ($15,000) fifteen thousand dollars.

That the widow and only next of kin of said decedent and their respective places of residence
are as follows:

1.  Martha A. Huff (your petitioner) widow of said decedent, of Canadice, Ontario County, New

All of whom are of full age and sound mind.

Wherefore, your petitioner prays for a decree awarding Letters of Administration upon the
goods, chattels and credits of the said decedent to your petitioner and to Evelyn C. Huff above
named, and that a citation may be issued to all persons having a right to administration, prior
to or equal to that of your petitioner, to show cause why such a decree should not be made.

Dated January 8, 1884
