Appeals Court Holds
Executor May Use
Doctors Testimony
Gives Right to Waive
Statutory Privilege
Of Confidence

An executor in will case has q
right to allow physicians attending
testator in his last illness to tes-
tify in contest arising over the
document, the United States Court
Of Appeals ruled today.
The courts attention was focused
on the case of John w. Thompson,
eldest son of Mrs. Wena D. Thomp-
son. Mrs. Thompsn died here De-
Cember /, 1896 Mr.. Thompson
challenged the validity of the WILL
dated December 13, 1885. The ap-
pellate tribunal reversed the case
and remanded it to the District
Court. Mr.. Thompson had appealed
from the District Court order which
admitted the will after he had sued
the executor. John Lewis Smith.
Two physicians had testified in
the lower court regarding the
mental capacity of the testatrix,
after the executor had waived the
privilege established by statute for
confidential information acquired
by physician in attending a pa
tient. Mr.. Thompson had objected
to testimony of the physicians who
had attended the decedent during
her lifetime, contending that the
executor did not lawfully waive this
privilege and that the court erred
in admitting the testimony.
The United States Court of Ap-
peals found that the trial court had
erred in giving instructions to the
jury and that these were confusing
and likely to lead to a misunder-
standing.
Representing Mr.. Thompson were
Attorneys William E. Leahy and
James F. Riley. The case was
heard before Associate Justices Har-
old M. Stephens, who wrote the
opinion, and Henry w. Edgerton
Of the appellate tribunal and Chief
Justice Alfred A. Wheat of Dis
trict Court.
A brief dissenting opinion was
written by Chief Justice Wheat, who
agreed with the majority finding
that an executor has a right to
waive the privilege of the physi-
clans and that it was not error for
the trial court to permit them to
testify. but he differed with his COL,
leagues with regard to the instruc-
tions to the jury, contending that
they were clear when read together

Franco regime unconditional recog-

clined it. 1t is expected to go to a

had reported on negotiations at
Burgos between Senator Berard and
Gen. Count Francisco Gomez

lister.
He also explained accords which
were reached in conclusion of ne
gotiations,' the communique said.
The texts of the accords were
expected to be made public tonight.
There were reported to be three
accords:

and postal relations between France
and Spain;
2. Covering settlement of ques-
tions concerning Spanish refugees,
gold and war supplies in France:
3. A general accord affirming
friendly relations between the two
