Of this county, was yesterday put on trial
in the Circuit Court. Disputes over legal

while Hon. Daniel Lamb and Messrs. w.

testament Of Lewis Lunstord, deceased.
The bill claims that his estate was worth
$4,000. His will provided that his chill
dren should receive share and share alike
OF the estate, except that II directed that
certain advances of money made to each
should be deducted from these shares.

her father from her husband, and 1t is this
charge to which she objects. She alleges
that her father was incapable Of making Q
will on account OF his mental condition,
and that undue influence was used by
those heirs having access to him at the
time the will was made.
