ISLANDER OF SISTERS.
Hrs. GOodSpeed Tells of 1t on the
WitneSS-Stand.
Relates How Her Mother, Mrs.
Pratt, Was PrejudiCed
Against Her.

Los ANGELES, Oct. Airs. Lucy
Goodspeed had her time on the witness
stand to-day in the Pratt will contest and
managed TO let it be clearly understood
that she does not like Mrs. General Mans
field and Mrs. Louisa Gross, her deceased
mothers sisters.
By her testimony, which together with
that of her male domestic, Dan Sullivan,
occupied the entire day, no one who heard
it doubted that she believed her mothers
sisters tried to prejudice Mrs. Pratt against
her and busted themselves very generally
10 her affairs. There were various pas
sages of considerable elasticity betN cen
counsel in the case, and Judge Clark had
hard day of it ia keeping track Of the
continued fire OF objections.
The contestants are drawing to the close
of their list of witnesses. and, it is
thought, will get through with their tesii-
m0ny upon the present branch of The case
tomorrow.
Dan Sullivan. the servant who had been
in the Pratt and GoOdspeed families for
years. was the first witness. Sullivan was
called upon to testify as to tie condition of
Mrs. Pratt's mind after the divorce pro-
ceedings and after the death of her son
tunate lady was sadly changed woman
after her second misfortune.
Mrs. Lucy c. Goodspeed, one of the con-
testants, was then recalled and occupied
the witness-Stand the remainder of the
days session. She reiterated the testi-
% ony given a. the guardian proceedings, for
the most part detailing her movements
since her marriage up to date. her relations
mother, mentally and physically. both
before and after her brothers death, and
many other details of the family hist1ry.@
/ During the afternoon session Mrs. Good
speed was again called upon to testify as
to the mental condition OF Der mother,
Mrs. Pratt. She stated that from August,
1898. up to the time of Mrs. Pratrs death,
she saw her every day for few minutes.
Part Of the time Mrs. Pratt was unable to
recognize her. and simply stared vacantly
at her. After Charles death she grew
worse in body aud mind. She did not
| want to talk with any one, and as time
went on she gradually grew worse. Wit
ness was here when she died. Her body
was buried al Oakland. She would look
wild and act like crazy woman. She
told her that the Mansfields told her that
the witness was trying to take her money
away from her and hated her; that she
| was mean to her children and was very
poor housekeeper.
When she told witness these tales that
her sister had said about witness she
would become very excited and violent
Mrs. Goodspeed said her mother told her
in 1884 that she had remembers her
brother and her well in the will of that
year. On cross-sxaminaton Mrs. God
speed said she did not believe her mother
was in a condition to transact business
after tho death of her son in February,
1885, until her death.
