Judges Gaskill, Glasgow and Lipplncoti
sat at the court house, on Wednesday, to
listen to testimony in the objection to
probating the will of the late Holdings
head Stokes, of Moorestown.
Hollingshead Stokes was well known in
this county. He was born and raised at
Moorestown, and was member of one OF
the best Burlington county families.
In late years, however, he became ad-
dicted to strong drink and during the
year prior to his death he was arrested
three times and locked up in the Camden
Jail on charges of assault and battery on
his wife and other members of his fam
lily. His last arrest was just before last
Christmas, when Prosecutor Jenkins gave
instructions to Justice Schmidt not to
take bail for hin. Afterward, however,
bail was taken and he was released.
Pending the disposition of his cases
Stokes died. When his will was read it
was found that he had left nothing to his
wife but her dover, and to his son he left
ten dollars. The balance of his money
was left to distant relatives.
Mrs. Stokes and her son, through Au-
gust F. Richter and E. Amber Arm
strong, of Camden, filed caveat against
the probate OF the Will on the ground of
insanity. Counsellors Samuel K. Rob-
bins and Israel Roberts represent the
will.
The testimony was concluded on Friday
and the case will be argued in few days
