Description

Mr. G.W. Kirn, former Council Bluffs school master, attests to his signature on a will of the late Drew Pearson, Washington newspaper columnist who died last month. Pearson, who spoke before Southwest Iowa Teachers here on Oct. 13, 1938, died leaving at least seven wills - but only one witnessed. That was written here at the Hotel Chieftain on the back of a Postal Telegraph Co. press blank, and was also attested to by H. Arthur Lee, journalism instructor at Abraham Lincoln High School. Witnessing the attestation for the U.S. District Court of Washington, D.C. is Ken Hummel, local notary public.
