guilty of conspiracy. Some time ago Buf-
nagle was the proprietor of large grocery
store on Federal street, Allegheny. He became
insolvent and among other debts he owed was

judgment for this at the office of Alderman
Mckelvy, Allegheny, and an execution was
placed in the hands of Constable Irwin to
serve. When the constable went to the store,
Hufnagle requested him to hold the writ for
day or two, and said he would go to Alderman
as Hutuagle did not appear at the Alderman's
office, Constable Irwin again went to the store
to serve the writ but was told by John Chap.
man, formerly Hufnagles clerk, that he had
purchased the store from Hufnagle. 1t after
ward developed that Hufnagle added the word
agent to his name the sign at the store,
and some time later he sold it for $500. This
disclosed the fact that Chapman had never
owned the store, and suit was brought against
them for conspiracy to cheat Hufnagle's cred
itors. who are chiefly Liberty street whole
salers.

FILED A VERBAL WILL.
A Case Where the Testament is Usually
Hard to Sustain,

A "nuncupative" will was filed yesterday for
probate. 1t was that of Lorenzo Lorenzini, of
Beatty street, who died April Z, 1890. A nuucu-
pative will is verbal will, the wishes of the
testator expressed on his deathbed being re-
duced to writing after his death, and duly wit
messed. Wills of this nature are few and far
between, and are difficult to sustain, not one
having been sustained in this county for the
last 20 years. A nuncpatIve will is only allowed
where the testator has not had time during his
sickness to make will, or is unable to write or
lift his hand to touch pen and make his mark
Decisions of the courts have drawn the re-
striclions SO close that but few verbal wills
hold In this case LorenZini gave to his wife, on
his dearhbed all his property, including store
and some money. The paper filed is witnessed
by Frederick aud Mary Kate Beckett.
