Description

In this case the material facts, which are undisputed, are these. Will Lathan, a colored World War veteran, died intestate in Bienville Parish, Louisiana, where he was domiciled. His succession was opened in the Second District Court of Bienville Parish and Julia Lathan was appointed and qualified as administratrix, for the purpose of collecting on a policy of life insurance, issued to him by the United States as a soldier. The United States Fidelity and Guaranty Co. became the surety on her official bond. The insurance, amounting to $5,259.81 was collected and distributed by the administratrix to herself and three other named persons as collateral heirs of Will Lathan, after payment of attorneys fees and costs of court. There being no other assets, in due course the succession was closed and the administratrix discharged. On appeal by the other alleged heirs the judgment was affirmed by the Supreme Court of Louisiana. Succession of Lathan, 178 La. 571, 152 So. 128.
