Wentrimisai, Dic. 9. 0 UsTo v. suxcisitt'VE. The teatatorin this cease, Ali.Tioualiy Sutcliffe, deceased, was one of the Quaker, persuasion, and married in 18413 a Miss Osborn, himself being 2 years older than that lady. It appears, that soon alter their union, the deceased became jealous and ssupicipas of his wife i. and accordingly, nu-icr the influence of those feelings, had made a will, dated in the year 1404, by which he cut her off without a shill rag, and left tile whole of his-personal and freehold property to his nephews and nieces. 111. will was deposited with Mr Minim, his btu. ther-in.law, residing in Essex.. Rut shortly after, Medi gOs it Isis suspicions were totally. groondless and unfoundad, Mr. Sistcliffe's affection (or his wife returned; and the peace and lueronay of the parties were completely re-established ; the. best understanding prevailingbetweets them down to the slay of his decease, which happened on Nov. 5, 1817. In that interval deceased frequently expressed to Mrs. Sinclittu, se well as to many of his friends, iii. fixed lutention of altering the will; and on one occasion made a particislor appointment with Mr.. Sutcliffe to aecompany talon to lows, whiiiss4 - Ise was going to receive his dividends : and after transacting his linsines at the Rank, to proceed into E...ex, in order to pro. care the will from Mr. Mushy. fur the purpose of making alterations in her favour. Many domestic contingencies, however, happened to prevent Mrs. Sutcliffe from accompa. Hying him, or even, as in that event he bad directed her, front following him to town. Mr. Sutcliffe returned home to their residence at Henley-upon-Thsines. without going on to Essex r, and. on Ilia( occasion the proposed journey into that county waS•psetpoued until his next going to receive his divi. tends, which he took twice a-year. Soma after, on the more• . log oflhe 1414 of November, 1817, the deceased was taken extremely ill ; and the awash schoolmaster, a Mt. Chapman, was sent for, to take instructions for making out a now will, which was shat now on behalf of M,s. Sutcliffe. The dolma sitious alleged, that on the arrival of Mr. Chapman, deceased was extremely ill and debilitated ; he was informed by Mrs, Sutcliffe of the nalare of thoap dispositions which tritatnr,liad so frequently expressed hie intention of making—that is, us her favour; bat neither then, nor throughout the long ante cedent period, which had elapsed since the making of the first will In 1801 did Mrs. Sutcliffe appear over forssard or importunate as to a irw one tieing made; she always declared her conviction that her liaaband would propetlf provide for her. On Chaisman's objecting that be could tiol lake io structions through that channel, she addressed tier husband in this manner, "Are you willing to make your will r —to which deceased replied, after a pans*, " Yes r—" Have you made your peace with God ?"—to which he also replied, " Yes."—" Arc you willing that the will shall be made as 1 like i it ?" to which, after a considerable pause, lie also a.seutest, Thsee inch uctioiss acre taken, re-writteu, and read uses to the deceased ; approved of, but not signed by him, bein•• taken away by Chapman to be more fairly transciibed ; and a few hours after, on the Sib November, before his return, testator died.
