 tJ fiTd thQA ffI,cs Sy11<aedi 55a> the will was properly executed was not raised. I find that it was properly ex- ecuted and I find that the testator had sufficient testimentary capacity. E find that there was no undue influence by Mir Bryan over MT Bennett. It was claimed that the sealed letter should be incorporated in the will. I find that reference in the will was sufficient aH to the sealed letter, yet language in document itself plainly indicated that the will was executed before that let ter was written. There was in exist ence before the will was executed a duplicate of the sealed letter. That is considered in support of the contention that that paper was a part of the will. The sealed letter was found with the will. I find that there was no undue influence, but that the sealed letter was not Incorporated in the will" The court further said that he ex- pressed no opinion as to. whether the sealed letter which gives S5O,O0O 10 Mir Bryan and his family can be incor- porated in the will. He said: Tt may be urged that 1t can be used, but as to that the court has no opinion to ex< press. '
 Attorneys immediately asked the court if a construction had been placed. 1 upon the bequest and the court called their attention to the text of the decis~ ion.
 Afterwards Judge Cleaveland stated that it was a question whether the pro- ] bate court had right to consider the construction of the sealed letter. and it was also a question whether the law yers In the case could so claim ques- tion in relation to the matter as to bring 1t within the provincesof the pro- bate court to consider 1t.
