Surrogate Fitzgerald says the testimony
shows she had been estranged from her husband
for many years, and had disclosed her perma-

may have been, the Surrogate says, her para

He holds that her mental faculties were not
impaired as TO render her incompetent of
making a will. and that the contention that she

not been proved.
