 Withdrawing their contest, Henry Neal and Albert Bradley of New Britain, through their counsel, At torney P. F. McDonough, today noti- fled Judge George R. Byington that they would not be present at the hear ing postponed at their request until 10 o'clock this morning to determine the validity of the will of Judge Frank $. Neal, presented by A. H. Condell as representative of the Plainville Trust company. Lawyer MoDonough gave no reason for their decision to permit the will to be admitted with out a fight.
 There was no objection to the granting Of MT. CondelIs application when Judge Byington opened the hearing and he admitted the will, naming the Plainville Trust company to serve as executor and appointing M o. Ryder and c. Russell Sherman to make an inventory of the estate.
 Mrs. Henrietta Goodrich of New Britain, who was left $1O,O00 in cash and Judge NeaI's household furniture and jewelry was the only beneficiary present at the hearing. She and MT. CondeH were on hand to testify if needed.
 Attorney Wallace Moyle of New Haven, who yesterday notified Judge Byington that he would be here to look after the interests of the Masonic Charities Foundation, was also absent.
 Judge Meals estate will now be settled in accordance with his wishes as expressed in the will and the ex- pected litigation will now in all prob ability fail to materialfze.
 The state will collect a substantial amount from the estate when a settle ment is made as five per cent of it's value will be taken for an inheritence tax As Judge Nears nearest rela- tives were cousins, but $500 of the money left after the property is sold and bills paid, will be exempt from taxation. The tax will come out of the money left to the Masonic chari- ties, Judge Neal expressing the wish that there be no deductions from the other legacies.
