Soldiers Wills.

In olden times everybody who was
In the happy position Of having per-
sonalty to bequeath was free to make
. will verbally or by an unattested
writing. This right, restricted by the
Statute OF Frauds, was abolished by
the wills act OF 1897, subject, how
ever, to the reservation that soldiers
on actual military service, and ma
rines, on sea, were still competent to
dispose OF their personally as they
might have done before. Hence all
the soldiers and sailors on duty
have. so far as the disposition OF
their worldly goods is concerned,
larger freedom than that possessed
by the kings subjects who are stay
ing at home. As a rule, too, Wills
are valid only If the persons making
them have reached the age Of twenty
one. There Is judicial authority for
saying that even this restriction does
not apply to soldiers and sailors on
active service.-Tit-Bits.
