A short time ago the will of Mrs. Leo
nora Howard, of Bayonne. was presented
for probate, and out of this fact there
promises to arise lawsuit. By the terms
of the will, house and lot in Bayonne was
decided to the Church of st. Mary, Star of
the Sea, of which the Rev Father Killeen
is the rector. William Howard. the hus-
band of the deceased, has filed a cayeat
through his counsel, Edward @. Keasbey,
of Newark, claiming that undue influence
had been used with his wife to induce her
to make the will in favor of the church.
He also produced previous will, by the
terms of which the property is togo to
him after his wife's death. He claims that
when he conveyed the property to his wife
it was with the understanding that it should
revert to him on her death.
Prosecutor Winfield has been retained to
attend to the interests of the church ia the
case, which is set down for hearing in the
Orphans Court on October 10.
'tThe question of undue influence is all
humbug," said Father Killeen to a TArrLER
reporter last night. "We have enough to
do to look after souls without paying any
attention to the acquiring of property.
Mrs. Howard was sick last Spring, and was
attended by Father Eagan One day he
came to me and said she wanted to make
will. 1 secured the services of lawyer
Benny and he drew the will. A few days
after Mrs. Howard was removed to st.
Francis Hospital, where she died of dis
ease Of the liver. After her death I read
the will to her husband He said he would
contest it. am sure if there had been
any undue influence, / should not have
taken the trouble to read the will to him.
The statement that she was devout Cath

liquor does not agree As far as can I'M
derstand the case, she was a second wife,
and as there were no children, he agreed
to division of the property, and it was
her share she bequeathed to the church
