with him. Be called on the 29th, to see how' Mr.
Weldon was, but found him, if any thing, worse
than before. It appeared also, that a Mr. Robert.
Clark, of Bath, another Attorney, had been sent
to by the 'limes about, this time, to make a Will,
which, on seeing Mr. Weldon, he refused to do.
Elizabeth Thy, the servant who went to liwe in
the family in July 1797, proved her treating Mr.
Weldon as a-child, and his complete incapacity
during the time she lived with him. That many
impositions with respea to Mr. John Weldon and
others were pralised upon him, and that he fre-
quently eat one kind of -viauals for another. • She.
also spoke to a conversation between the nieces in
the kitchen, two or three. days after the izth of
March, of their having something to communicate
to Mr. John Weldon (which each wished the' other
to do), and their saying he would not,be so happy
when.he knew what was done. • •

• Edward Watts, the barber who attended Mr. Wel_
don for about fourteen years, spoke to his first observ-
' ing his incapacitrabout the middle of the year 1.797,
and said that it increased until the time of his death.
He.proved als6 the great defed in. his eye-siglit.
There were declarations of the nieces proved by
Mr. Ridpatb,. an attorney -in Bath, and partner
with Mr. Boord, which fixed the time of the Will
being inexistence on the a zth of March 1798, and
its destrudion,on the i sth Of the same month ; and
that MiSs Jane had made-a memorandum in, her.
pocket-book orits being torn that-day.
The !eared Judge, Sir W.'WYNYE, recapitu-
, lated, with • his , usual clearness and 'precision; the
several parts of .the-evidence ; observing, that. the
question was, " How the cancellation arose ? and,'
Whether the legal presumption of its being done by
the deceased was renelledi by satida.saory proof ?
Did the Will, he asked, come out of the deceased's
hands in its present.state ? He thought not. It
was taken from a box to which the nieces had
access, And the cancelling might. 'Clearly have
buil done by other hands than his own—lt
might even have been done . by the deceased him-
self, yet not animo fancellzmdi, and if so, would
not be a legal cancellation. Here the Learned Judge
cited Authority in support of this doCtrine ; but ad-
ded, that the Evidence .of Mr. Boord, satisfied his
mind that,. until the nieces sent fur hiM the Will
•remainedentire. Their Declaradons had been con_
tended, not to be admissible. Evidence. They were
not made with the view to establish- the paper, but
the dired contrary, and Catherine Weldon made
them with a view of getting aigreptei interest for
herself. He was satisfied theVill. Was entire on
the i zth of March, for the nieces would certainly
have told- Mr. Boord it was cancelled, if it had been
"so. Catherine, on mentioning the tearing Bank'
Notes,. had a caution given her about the Will,
and Mr. _Boord swore, he had no notice of the Will
being cancelled at that. time. Mr. Boord got pos.
session of the Will on the 23d of May, and Cathe-
rine said it was torn, by -the deceased himself. about
silt weeks before; poSitively after. the .12th of March,
and' the deceased himself also declared he knew no-
thing at all about it : he was not quite insensible,
though it was not very important what he could say
in his then state'. That the nieces spewed a great •
eagerness to get rid of the Will was manifest, and
he thought it highly probable that the at was done
by the nieces, but clear, that it was not done by the
deceased while he was capa,ble. of such an ad, and
the appearance.of the paper,. considering his state of
eye-sight, negatived its being done by the deceased
hiMself. The signatures were cut out with such
care and method as could not be done by an old man
of 90 years of age, almost blind. The Learned Judge
then concluded, with declaring that, in'his opinion,
the ordinary legal presumption was satisfadOrily
removed, and therefore pronounced Judgment for the
validity .of the Will, notwithstanding its mutilated
state and appearance, and decreed the rroba te thereof
accordingly.
