And this court is of the opinion and does recommend allowance of the following amounts to the above named claimants in the following manner:\nTo Joseph and Mary Soland, No. 1303, the court recommends an allowance of Twenty-five Hundred Twenty-five ($2,525.00) Dollars.\nTo Viola Yonkers, No. 1304, the court recommends an allowance of Fourteen Hundred Forty-five ($1,445.00) Dollars.\nTo Bertha Roark, No. 1305, the court recommends an allowance of Two Thousand Eighty-five ($2,085.00) Dollars.",
