Will CASE
CONTINUES

New Haven, Conn. March a0.-The su-
perior court room was again crowded
with an interested audience today when
the hearing OF the appeal of william J.
Bryan from the decision of the probate
court excluding the famous $4,000 sealed
letter as a part OF the will OF p. s. Ben
nett was continued. Mrs Bennett, the
widow of the testator. had a seat near
her counsel.
The argument OF ex-Judge stoddard
counsel for Mrs Bennett. regarding the
admissability OF the sealed letter as
evidence. was completed yesterday after
noon, but was followed today by n brief
address. the jury being meanwhile ex-
cused Ex-Judge Stoddard laid special
emphasis on the assertion that the courts
of this country and England have never
admitted a document like the sealed let

'rThe fact that the letter was signed by
the testator makes no difference In a case

1T is apparent" ne continued. that
this paper was never intended 10 be
part OF Mr. Benefits will. Counsel for
the other side will say that this paper
was contemparanious with the will.
Where a paper is executed at the same
time at which tho will Is executed why
does not the party make IL part OF the

has been no intention 10 do so"
Judge Stoddard quoted from the letter
that part which says that the letter was
TO be read by the widow alone and asked
do you mean TO say that this document
was ever intended TO be spread on the
public records? Read by YOU alone
There is nothing In that which can pos
