No especial proof of death was required by the surrogate today, when the first will of a Titanic victim, William Anderson Walker, the head of Hope Lodge, No. 124, F. and A. M., of East Orange, was offered for probate by his widow, Mrs. Frances Moorhouse Walker.

The testament, which left all Mr. Walker’s estate to his widow, naming her executrix, was probated without question. It was dated November 7, 1905.

Mr. Walker had but one other surviving relative, a sister, Mrs. Elizabeth L. Allen, of Cambridge, England.
