THE COURT RULES AGAINST
THE PETITIONERS ON
THE CODICIL.

But calls for Authorities on the
Phase OF Undue Influence.
The Stevenson will case was
called on Friday morning at Ills.
In the District Courtroom.
It was admitted by the contest
nants that In will cases the propo-
ant has the opening and closing
speeches.
MIR. coFFIN's ARGUMENT.
Mr.. Coma for the defendant. ad-
dressed the Court on the three
principal grounds, wheron the will
was contested. The first ground,
that Of informality in the drawing
OF the will had been abandoned by
the contestants. Regarding the ex-
istance OF q codicl which was
claimed to have been destroyed,
he thought that also should be
abandoned as the testimony taken
in Carson was all a tempest in q
teapot.
Mr. Lowe the attorney who
drafted the will had testified that
it was his custom to place much
lage In documents although he did
not remember having done SO on
that occa sion hut it was his usual
custom to do so.
The photographer who after
ward handled the will testified that
he pulled il apart which he con-
sidered settled the codical ques-
ton and he would drop that sub
ject as it had evaporated into the
air.
The only thing left was the
question Of undue influence. The
testimony on this subject had come
from interested parties who had
something to gain. He asked the
Court to exclude all the hearsay
testimony on tho subject as it
had no bearing on the case.
No one ever heard Ms. Steve
nson exercise an undue in
f1uence over her husband.
He held that all the testimoy
relative to conversation with the
deceased should be excluded as it
could not be refuted by one party
to the conversation as he was dead.
The attorney quoted authori-
ties on this section, and held that
it was boyi.h to talk Of setting
aside q will because Mrs. Steven
son had said something about
milking Stevenson's COW for the
benefit Of Stevenson's boys, when
she was sputtering around in Gold
Hill, one day when she was hot.
In none Of the testimony was there
anything to show that the accused
had any influence over him when he
was in the act of making tho will,
although she might have influenced
him prier to that.
When the will was executed she
was not present, she seems to have
fallen out of sight altogether
and he executed it with his law
yers and kept it In his box locked
up for six years and on his death
bed he said it was his will.
Through series Of years he had
it steadily in view to make the will
as he did and he was q man who
could not be turned from his pur-
pose, instead of Mrs. Stevenson
exercising influence over him 1t

You made mistake in your editorial
paragraph of yesterday when you said
The change made by the last Legisla-
ture in regard to the granting of icene
to retail liquor was that the County
Commissioners are deprived of any dis
cretion. 1t is made obligatory upon
them 20 grant license when the applicant
is qualified according to law. If any
community does not want bar-rooms it
can vote them out under the local op-
tion act. But the County Commission
ers have no discretion. This in answer
to Hyde county correspondent"
The last Legislature made no change
in the law with regard to the granting of
license to retail liquor by County Com
missioners. They left t. e law as they
found it, and while the act of 1889 said
County Commissioners SHALL" &c. :,
the Supreme Court has said in decis-
ion for Robson and, think, Alamance
county, that County Commissioners
have the matter in their own hands to
grant or not grant license.
hope you will give your readers the
benefit Of that decision Of the Supreme
Court.
