Glover and Norman S. Glover, from the
decision of Judge Charles j. McIntre
of the probate court, who, after long
contest brought by the four brothers

ed the death of Clarence F. Glover. the

of the murdered man, a charge that was
made at the time of the will contest in
the probate court, but not gone into be-
cause the date of the alleged fraudulent

instrument was not duly executed.

ed in the appeal, is not in Waltham at
