The Supreme Court of Maine, in a
will case brought before it, has decid-
ed that belief in Spiritualisn is not
ipso facto proof of insanity, or even of
an insane delusion. In the case in
question, the plaintiff sought to break a
will by showing that the testator was
insane because she had professed to
have communication with her deceas-
ed husband in drawing up the will. In
the decision the Court said:
eff the testatrix was so Influenced by
others that the instrument was in fact
| their will and not hers, it is void, for
undue Influence; but mere advice, opin-
iols, or arguments, however persistent
ly and strongly urged, will notiamount
to undue influence. if the teStatriX re-
tanned her Own It:G cement and free
agency, SO a. Ii t,- Governed ultimately
by her own will, whether she followed
the advice given or rejected if; nor does
il make any difference whether this
advice came from living persons or was
supposed to come from one deceased, il
she regarded it simply as advice or
opinion. The source of the advice can
make no difference, if it did not subju-
gate and overcome the testatriX's own
will"
The case is an interesting one, as it
is, we believe, the first time that Su-
preme Court has pronounced decision
in which the sanity OF Spiritualists has
been involved,
