Charles Mosher, former Daytona Beai’ii laundry employ, may receive a ; large scare of a $132,000,000 fortune : that England doesn't want. .| The Daytona Beach man has just• 1 learned from his mother in Racine. 1 ; Wis.. that his family has entered the ' i first stage of a long drawn out litiga tion to collect the Mosher fortune. The story of the fabulous fortune goes back to the England of 1640 * when Ezekiel Mosher, land baron, J dieel and his fortune was placed in J the Bank of England to be held at' compound interest for his heirs. For centuries the money has been increased. And now, according to Mosher, England wants the descend ants to take over the Mosher for-' tune. 276 years after the death of the land owner. ■ The heirs of Mosher, according to' I the story, went out from England ill-, I ,c> the new world, and fought their | ; way through the pioneer life of the 1 time to carve out homes for them-] selves in the middle west. Mnny of the early Moshers were Victims of Indian massacres, it is believed. Ernest Victor Straight, of Mil waukee, also a descendant, has charge of efforts to divide the fortune, Mosh er and liis soil, Earl Mosher, mes senger boy, said. Authorities of the Bank of Eng land, it is claimed, have sjieeitied that all living descendants of the Mosher family be found and their identities proved. Living heirs have dug up musty photographs, letters yel lowed with age and every possible detail to make their identification complete. Mosher said he recently received notice that Ezekiel Mosher's fortune is still on deposit in London banks. Recently several heirs of the fam ily field a reunion to take up ihe question of collecting tile fortune. The reunion brought together many members of the widely scattered fam ilies who had never met before, ac cording to Mosher. Mosher admits that only tile first stage of the fight to get the fortune lias started. Relatives see long drawn lout litigation ahead, he said, and they expect it will be several years be fore the money will actually come into their hands.
