Tyson’s Estate.
    Argued November 29, 1939.
    Before Kephart, C. J., Schaefer, Maxey, Drew, Linn, Stern and Barnes, JJ.
    
      C. Wilfred Conard, with him George M. Miller, Jr., and Oonard d Middleton, for appellant.
    
      Morris E. Goldman, Bernard Esldn and Wolf, Block, Schorr d Solis-Cohen, for appellees, were not heard.
    December 8, 1939:
   Per Curiam,

The court below held that a letter from decedent to his sister, stating “I am making out my will leaving my securities to you,” where no such will was found, did not itself constitute a will. As the writing manifestly referred to another paper as decedent’s will, the decision of the court below is clearly correct, and no discussion is necessary. See Stein’s Lessee v. North, 3 Yeates 324, 325; McCune’s Estate, 265 Pa. 523, 528; Kaufman’s Estate, 283 Pa. 375, 377.

Decree affirmed at appellant’s cost.
