Another case of a man having his will drawn by a layman and not by a lawyer, and then having a contest over it after the decease of the testa- tor, came up at Osgoode Hall on Tues- day last, before Sir William Mulock, when the executors of the will of John Lindsay Brown, late of the Township of Fenelon, asked the court to con- strue the will and direct them how to proceed in the distribution of the es- tate. The testator had given the per- sonal property to one of his daugh- ters, and ,after her death, tweertain other legatees. The contention is that it is impossible to make two estates in personal property, and that the personal property is vested in the first person to whom it was given, and this legatee having died since the testator, it was contended that the heirs of the legatee should take the'portion com- ing to the legatee, instead of having the provisions of the will carried out. The case was adjourned until Janu- ary 8th, to be taken up in Single I. E. Weldon, for the executors; A. J. Russell Snow, K.C., for the claim- ant legatees; F. W. Harcourt, K.C., for the other parties. Court. urnâ€".0 m<_2._.m_mIO m0_z I.:>> wm<.._0 JOOIOm ><QZDw JmIme >m QmmOZOI FenclonWillCase At Osgoodellall CASE IN REGARD TO WILL OF J. L.
