bedside, told him he should make no will
in writing, but directed him to pay GER
tain sums to certain persons. After the
brothers. decease Mr.. Bradstreet car
ried out his brothers directions faith
fully. But William S. Grant claims that
his name was mentioned and that the de-
ceased directed that thousand dollars
be paid to him. He brings the nurse,
who testifies that VIM. S. Grants name
was mentioned, as claimed. Mr.. Brad
street says the nurse is mistaken and that
she has COMPOUNDED William S. Grant
with Peter Grant, who has received a
portion of the property. The case is
now before the law court, to determine
whether William S. Grant is entitled to
the thousand dollars he claims. Heath
& Tuell appear for the plaintiff and Hon.

defence.
