Biology Instructor Fights for Estate

Herman R. Sweet, assistant in Biology, is contesting the $600,000 estate of his father, Mayor Frank R. Sweet of Attieboro, Massachusetts. A stamp collection estimated as ranging in value from $80,000 to $260,000 is one of the issues in the dispute.

The instructor testified in the probate court that his quarrel with his parent has been over his choice of a career and because he wished to engage a butler after his marriage.
