JUSTICE GAyNOR GIVES DECISION OF
MUCH IMPORTANCE TO DEPOSITORS


An important decision was yesterday handed
down In the Supreme Court by Justice William J.
Gaynor In the OF John Padmorc ne admins
traitor Of the estate of his wife. Annie Padmore
against the Dime Savings Bank. OF williamsburg.
ana the Brooklyn Savings Bank IN which Justice
Gaynor decides that savings bank Is liable to the
estate Of deceased person for sums paid out upon
tho production of a bank passbook. where the evil
dcnce is not conclusive that the possession of the
bank passoook was gift causa mortis.
Annie Caldwell Padmore was formerly Annie
Caldwell. and was for many years n servant at No.
III 1lvingston-st. She saved up sum OF money.
which she had deposit various banks. She
died while the wife Of the plaintiff at the home %
her friend. Bridget Reilly In Manhattan. \ Wit
ness for the plaintiff testified that she was AZ the
home of Bridget Reilly the day that Mrs. Padmore
died. She expressed regret that Mrs Padfnore
ili, and the witness said that Mrs Reilly re-
piled:
"Oh. yes: she Is able to sit mp all right but it IL
those bank books under her head she is watching.
and she won't Jet go OF them"
The defence gave testimony which went to show
that Mrs. Pagmore. knowing that she was about
to die. the bank books TO her friend Mrs
Reilly as a gift. After her death Mrs. Reilly
drew the money which was on deposit in the banks.
Justice Gaynor in directing verdict for the
plaintiff against the Brooklyn Savings Bank f9r
slo IS and a verdict against the Dime Savings Bank
for s}6i d. said:
The defence Of the gift causa morus Is not mace
out The evidence il only this: The alleged donee
produces the deposit book and testiies thai s,'
had IL IN her possession before the decedent death
Another witness tcsties that she saw the decedeit
in her last sickness take from the bag IN the SICK
room q number OF bank books and hand them 10
the alleged ionee. saying Il am a SICK woman
and know that am going to die. you take 'heS.
and bury with this. and what Is left Is your
The witness did see the bank books sufficiently
to Identify them know how many there were.
Another witness corroborates this. but sd" even
less of the hank books She says there were 4
number inside of envelope, and believe TWO
inside" The fact that the dOnee had possession o.
this particular bank book is no evidence 81 a GIN
especially she and others had opportunity
to take it, both before and after the deceheht
death
Possession Of the chattels Of a deceased person;
either before after his death. Is no evidence or
a gift. The law prcSumes nothing from II, ana m
dependent of II. there must be clear and c0nNlnc,
ing. strong and satisfactory proof which u required
to max out q gift causa norris in order to pre-
vent fraud and larceny That is lacking here, and
I direct verdict for the plaintiff.
