The heirs of Caleb Lucas, of Lincoln County, claim that the executor of his estate, Fielding Kenley, looted the estate and deprived "his poor and needy relatives" of their inheritance. The brief demonstrates that Kenley forged and falsified documents that appeared to show Lucas's indebtedness to Kenley, who then fraudulently distributed estate funds to himself. Not in the standard references.
