London Telegraph.

The man or woman who has an estate
that warrants the making of a will and
has number of requests to make
invariably invites lot of litigation if he
or she attempts to get up a testament
without the services of an attorney.
Many peculiar wills are filed of record,
and scarcely a day passes at the regis
ter's Office that there is not dispute over
the meaning of this. that or the other
clause of some testament written by the
testator. A document was under discus
sion the other day among the clerks of
the Office which did not leave much
doubt as to what the testator meant. He
was German. Like many persons who
reward some OF their heirs before writ
ing their wills and then call attention to
the fact in the will in order to avoid
contest, this German had given $500 to
his son Gustave before writing the will.
This is how he made note of the fact, ITO
mine son Gustav, I gif $500. what he has
alreddy got."-Pittsburg Chronicle-Tele
