contest for revocation OF probate Of the
Will is brought by Whites daughter, Alice NJ.
White The contestant calls attention to the
fact hat Russell White died on February 8,
1888, leaving an estate of the value of about
$4,000. his widow, Mary l.. White, now Mary
l.. Gray, was appointed eXcutTiX of his Will,
which was cuiy admitted 10 probate by Judge

Il Is all ged that Mrs. White told her husband
that nothing Oh earth would ever induce her 10

scarce six months from the date of Russell

In addition Ii is alleged that for some years
before his death Russell Whites mind was
