Sullivan should go to Mrs. Sawyer ct her
death, she. with prejudice against wills,
took the wrong course to accomplish her
end, and made the deed under the mis-
taken idea that it would operate as .
Will, and it's delivery after her death
would convey the property. The defen-
dant claimed that the deed never left
Mrs. Hills control and possession, that
she did not intend that it should, that

in this as in other matters; that the deed
had never been delivered and that the

fore went to the sole heir at law, Mics
Stevens.
