SYNOPSIS OF THE FINDINGS.
Reduced to their simplest form the
findings on these special Issues leave the
legal victory with the contestants. On
every proposition answers are made
fAvoring them, with one notable exoep-
tion-the Mnnshelds are exoneratsd
from the charges OF forgery and OF
duress. II is found that Mrs. Annie A.
Pratt, after making the will OF 1881,
made oil the changes. interpretations,
etc., herself. That in. 1884 another will
was drawn up and executed by Mrs.
Pratt, and that by its terms, the will of
1881 MAS revoked. That subsequently y,
in 1885, Mrs. Pratt made the codicil and
attached 1t TO the will OF 1881, intending
thereby to revive It, but ct that time she
was OF unsound mind.
THE NEXT PHASE OF CONTEST.
The next point to be decided will be
the admission OF the will OF 1881. with
codicil attached, to probate. This will
be argued and decided by Judge Clark
on the basis Of the special issues decided
by the jury.
With that will out OF the way then
the lost document OF 1884 would have to
be found or the eststs would be distrib-
uted to the heirs OF Mrs. Annie A. Pratt
under the rules Of the general law.
1t 10 only few days ago that upon
the white flag OF peace being hung out
by counsel acting for the proponents,
that the contestants showed their will
lingness to compromise the matter, but
the Mansfield faction insisted ON pro
batting the will OF 1881 and that wa 9
more than the other eide could stand
and the suit again came into court.

Heath trial. had an alteration this alter
noon in which blows exchanged. but no
one was hurt. Meares is awitness for the

Meares had heard by some means that
Foote had made a statement TO the effect
that he (Foote) had saved Meares from the
penitentiary some time previous. Meares
this afternoon asked FoOte if he had made
such a statement, which F0ote denied.
Quite q shower of hostile words ensued.
which were followed by blows. Sheriff
Scott and some deputies restored quiet be-
fore the scrap progressed into seriousness,
and no arrests were made.
When court opened this morning the at
tendance was larger than heretofore, the
sensational testimony of Saturday having
led many to believe that more such inter-
esting testimony would be elicited. They
were disappointed. however, for the wit
nesses called to the stand told about the
same stories as at the first trial.
w j. Tipnin, lawyer, was the first
witness. lie said he was awake at the
time Of the shooting and counted seven
shots. DR.. A. G. Dearborn was awakened
by call from patient about the time of
the shooting, and he also heard seven
shots. j. c. Denel, the attorney. counted
seven shots. and Mrs. w. j. Tinnln cor
roborated her husbands testimony con-
corning the number.
Mrs. Matte +. Leach. who lives near
the McWhirter residence. saw a man. hat
in hand, running away from the direction
of the shooting few minutes after it oc-
Cured. The man looked like w. ID.
Grady. well-known lawyer here and an
enemy of New hirter.
Mrs. Leslie Graham heard thres shots
and then the sound of carriage coming
from the direction of McWhirter's. She
also heard persons running.
w. F. Cutberth, special policeman,
saw Heath in Chinatown on the night Of
the murder and heard Heath say, "WeIl
do him No." The officer was in citizens
clothes. and says he never saw Heath after
this incident. At the conclusion eff Cut
berth's testimony court adjourned until
