Surrogate Rollins, of New York City,
handed down the decision in the Jesse Hoyt
will case. The will is sustained. The sur
rogate says the will of Jesse Hoyt is in all
things sufficiently probated and the probate
thereof must be confirmed. If in the judg-
ment and conscience of Jesse Hoyt, said the
surrogate, 'the requests he made to his
wife and daughter were adequate to their
needs and to his conjugal and parental obi
cations, it was natural and proper he should
look to his fathers children and children g
children as persons justly entitled by ties of
blood and affection to the remainder of his
large possessions"

permission, and came near paying the PEN

to see the little fellow hanging to post in
