Undue Influence. ,
New York, April 9.—-—Surrogate Arnold
heard more testimony today in the con-
test of the will of William Ivison, who
was for many years a book publisher
_ln this city.

man House in his 80th year, leaving an
estate of $900,000. His will made little
provisiOn for any one except his

and a niece, Jane I. Williams, are con-
testing the probate of the will, alleging

became his confidential clerk.

man House, occupying rooms adjoining
those of her employer. She gave con-
siderable testimony concerning the
business affairs of Mr. Ivison, but de-
nied that sherhad a. list of his bonds.
She denied that she had threatened to
leave Mr. Ivison unless he did things to
please her.
Mrs. Elizabeth Seeley, a. sister-in-law
of Mr. Ivison, testified that she visited
him at the Hoffman 'House after the
death of his wife, and on one occasion
saw Miss Sheridan kneeling beside Mr.
Ivison with her arms around his neck
while he was lying on a. lounge.
