 Battle over family heirlooms returns to court
A bitterly divided patrician family, which has spent hundreds of thousands of pounds warring over the fate of £250,000 of family heirlooms, were back in court in Belfast today after failing to reach a last-minute accommodation.
The legal action against Marion Scarlett Needham Russell, brought by her sister Mrs Debonair Norah Needham Horsman, and her brother Philip James Anley — all descendants of the Earl of Kilmorey — stems from Mrs Russell's refusal to return £250,000 worth of antiques she took from the family's ancestral home at Mourne Park.
The Co Down heiress has argued that she claimed possession of the antiques - which are valued at one-third of the total value of the assets of the house — as her part of an inheritance.

The two-day auction at the Mourne Park estate outside Kilkeel and the Slieve Donard Hotel in Newcastle attracted hundreds of visitors and collectors to bid for items from the stately home.

The spectacular sale comes months after a bitter family feud between Marion Scarlett Needham Russell and her siblings Philip James Anley and Debonair Norah Needham Horsman, which resulted in Mrs Russell spending a week in Maghaberry Prison for refusing a court order to reveal where she had hidden £250,000 worth of furniture and paintings.
