Kicker v. Rowe

Otis, Justice.

The judgment of the district court which is here for review is one which dismissed an appeal from a decree of distribution entered by the probate court of Wadena County.

The appellant, Erma E. Kicker, alleges that she was bom June 13, 1906, the child of John and Harriet Sherwood, and that in March 1909 the decedent and his wife established the relationship of parent and child with her, pursuant to a contract of adoption. She asserts that through inadvertence and mistake decedent failed to provide for her in his will, and she here claims her statutory share of the estate.
