Exec'r. S. S. Brown for the app't. Foster anu
Stewart for the executor On Dec. Sth, 1874 John
Blaisdell, an aged man. and once a prosperous
farmer, living in Sidney. made his will, giving
most Of his property to his daughters, and cutting
oil nis only son, the said Charles L., with shil-
ling. Charles T. had always lived on tae home
stead and expected it would come into his posses
sion on the old gentleman's decease. Indeed a
former will exists, in which more liberal provision
was made for the son. The last will was APP
proved by the Judge of Probate. and
CHARLES T. took an appeal to this court. The
grounds upon which il is attempted to set aside
the last will are that it was not signed and exc
cuted by the testator, and that undue influence
was exerted upon the old man in making his will,
he being then ak and feeble in body and mind.
