Eben Wood. one of the brothers and
Minnie 8. Weber, his niece.
1t appeared in THE evidence that
the deceased was a mann about 80
years Of aSe. He had worked for Mar
tin Blaisdell. ex-mayor Of Waterville
for Is or Il years. As he had given
all his property 70 the above men-
toned relatives. the rest of the

They contest the will on the ground
that Wood was not in physical ana
mental condition to make a will at

eight witnesses were examined and the
matter was continued for further evil
dcnce until Thursday. Dec. 20. John F.
