TRYING TO BREAK WILL
IN $4,000 ESTATE

The unusual process of polling a jury
IN civil case took place in the super
Tor court at New London Thursday af-
ternoon for the trial of the case of Har-
riet S. Devereaux against David F..
Armstrong of Groton, executor of the
estate of the late Augusta A. Luther,
widow of Capt Joseph Luther of New
London. The suit is an appeal from the
action of the probate court in admitting
10 probate the will of Mr9 Luther. who
died several months ago, leaving the
bulk of her estate to Armstrong and
members of his family. The estate in

TO break the will is being made on the
ground Of mental incapacity and undue
influence.

to the court that there are SO many le-
gatees involved in the suit that It had
been impossible to ascertain If any

the privilege of polling the jury. Judge
Christopher L. Avery, who was on the
bench, said that it was the privilege
of counsel to exercise the right but that
It would take time
The polling was then begun and each
juryman was questioned as to whether
he was acquainted with Mrs. Luther or
was related to her or to any of the
counsel in the case or was client OF
any Of the counsel
