WILL of the LATE MIC,THOMPOI44'
OF THE PRIORY, HAMPSTEAD.
PREROGATIVE COURT, FEB. 2.
LE BAS v. GREGORY. f
The deceased in this case was Mr. John Thompson, 0-.A5,
th
Priory, Hanipstead, who died on the 6th of March, 1
aged 84, a widower. The question related to a will left
o 4
him, dated March 5, 1843, which was propounded Oh us•
being no executor or residuary legatee appointed therein) vir;
Mrs. Margaret Le Bas, a niece of the deceased, and Was °rr,
posed by Mr. Barnard Gregory, in the character of exeeattli
named in an .alleged will of the deceased, bearing date
22d of February, 1843. The will in question was contaA,
in three sheets of paper, in the handwriting of the deeen.,
but in a very imperfect form. The first sheet contained lea
a very few lines ; the second was full of writing, but erlisil
over, as if with the intention of cancelling; the third a
only a few lines, and at the conclusion were the foll°Wisst
words 2—" I, John Thompson, do declare this to be 111Lch,
will and testament. Witness my hand this sth of Mr ha
1843. Signed and published by the above-named 4.111
Thompson, in our presence, Sarah Thompson, Mary ,nati
Clark." The names of these witnesses (who were aer:the
of the deceased) were written in pencil, as they stated, u.lt of
direction of the deceased. There was, moreover, a wei visa
continuity in the three sheets. The purport of the viu'ireat
to bequeath various legacies, and amongst others 401• foot
to Mrs. Le Bas ; but the residue was undisposed of; witerd
by the will of February, the residue was given to Mr. 133,,'",,b,
,11 Gregory, who was wholly excluded by the will ofBiwo
1843, as originally contained in the three sheets. 01
subscribing witnesses proved that they witnessed the wio, tlO
Mr. Amos Gann, a solicitor, proved that he received fr°lll•he
deceased the three sheets, which contained alterations, favtis
purpose of drawing thence a new will, one of the alterat6re,
being the insertion of a legacy of 1001. to Mr. Barnard oeti
tP
gory. Before the new will was executed, however, the dece S
died. Mr. Gann, in his examination, produced a letter froaloso
deceased, in which the latter informed him that lie hadi:, in
his will, which had been witnessed by his two servAn`,4l
pencil, " so that it could be altered," and Mr. Gann idel'%00
the three sheets of paper now produced as the papers Is "is
the deceased delivered to him as instructions for the, "the
will. Mr. Gann further stated that when lie brouiPois
new will to the deceased, Mr. Gregory was present; 2htsry,
read it over to the deceased in the presence of Mr. Gill' to
and likewise gave, at the same time, one copy of the t'etion
Mr. Gregory to read, and that the latter made no OIU the
to the disposition, nor did he or the deceased advert t°
previous will of February. rt of

Sir H. Jenner Fust said, there were some circums-a_ froas
this case which were very extraordinary. It was
the facts, that whatever might turn out to be the v's pro-
the deceased, it was his intention to execute this 33 net
visional will, and to consult his solicitor about makini,reery,
will.. Now, it would appear that on the 22d of F#'lol had
