Counsel for U7ido7c and W. j. Bryan
Differ. and the Court VIII Decide.

posing counsel in the case OF the VIII Oh INC IS'9
Philo S. Bennett to agree on the 10TH % INC 1Ol
NAL decree to be entered In the PROBATE Coul'
proceedings was made manifest to-day when Judge
Henry Stoddard as counsel for Mrs. behne't' tne
widow and other heirs. filed with Judge LIVINGSTON
w CeaveIand OF the court, his draft OF the form
of the decree with it Judge Stoddard submitted
80 20 +to oorrt saving that Mr.. Hewitt, OF New
ton Church & Hewitt. counsel for william J.
Bryan the executor Of the VIII. had been unable
TO agree with him as to the wording OF the Decree
the inference being that Mr.. Hewitt VIII also sub
nit his idea of the form the decree should take
and that the court will have to settle the matter
In effect the draft submitted by Judge Stoddard
saws that the will OF PhilO s. Bennett was offered
for probatng; that the court admits X. with the
exception of a sealed letter and envelope, which,
il was said was part Of the will. and that the
court finds that the sealed letter and envelope
not Fart Of the WILL and not admitted to pro-
bate.
After Judge C1eaveland had given his decision
regarding the will come weeks ago. he referred
to the opposing counsel the question as TO the
exact form of the decree IN order that they might
If POSSIBLE reach an agreement before he finally
passed upon it
Later in the day Mr.. Bryan's attorneys sub
mtted to the court the form Of decree which they
desired entered. After a statement that tne VIII
is approved allowed and ordered to be recorded,
this document declares that Is c4 IL aus tbe
sealed documents referred TO In Section IL or the
that the court further finds that the envelope and
letter are proved to have been IN existence al
the time of the execution OF the will, that the type

existence at the time of the execution or the VIII
that the letter contained in the envelope was copied
