An important legal point, which would seem to make it almost impossible for the will of 1873 to secure probate, is that the district law specifically requires that the signatures of witnesses to a will, as wall as the signature of the tostator himself, shall be witnessed in the presence of all parties signing, and that a clause attest— ing to that fact shall be inserted in the body of the document itself. In the ab- sence of that attesting clause the executor of the will is required to gointo court and prove that the witnesses did sign the will in the presence of the testator and of each others Must Verify the Signatures. In the present case the Holt will con- tains the words “Signed and sealed by me in the presence of these witnesses. " Judge Bolt's signature follows, yvlt h the slgna~ tures of the witnesses immediately below. There is, however, nothing on the docu- ment to show the attrntatron of the wit bosses to the fact that it is in reality the judge’s will. Executor .Devlin will, therefore; in or- der to comply with the requirements of- the law, be compelled to produce witness- es to show that President Grant and Gcnv era] and Mrs. Sherman actually witnessed to the signature of this will of Judge Holt. This would seem lobe an almost impec- sible thing to accomplish, and, as it will be held more especially incumbent upon him to do this in view of the fact that all of the witnesses are dated, there would seem to be an almost inseparable obstacle in the law itself to the probation of this document. The various persons interested in the case are gathering in Washington in un- ticlpation of the legal battle which is to determine to whom the valuable estate is to be glvcn. No action has been taken by any of the parties interested to bring the attention of the courts to the matter. The heirs at law and their attorneys are awaiting the notification of the other simplest they propose to petition for the probate of the mysteriously recovered thmunmnt. listed the Throekmortons. When the case comes to trial, in the evenrthmircsubsoquent will of teacher not been discovered by that time, the pro- bate of the 1873 will will be fought on the ground that it does not represent the do- sire and views of the late Judge Advocate General Holt at the time of his death and has been revoked. in support of this propo‘ sltion they will bring forward the wit- nesses who have been dismvered by the press who knew of the hatred which Judge Holt entertained toward the Throckmortoas during the last years of his life. It is the object of the probate law in contests between heir and legumes to en- deavor to decide the «also as nearly as pos— sible in accordance with the last known wishes and preferences of tho tcstator so far as they can be ascertained. That will be done in all probability in this case. Mrs. ’l‘hrockmorton, the grandmother of Miss Josephine, one of the beneficiaries of the 1873 will, still insists that there was never any rupture in the plmsant re- lations existing for so many yours bet ween herself rind her family and Judge Holt prior to his death. She maintains that they remained friendly to tho lust. All of the servants declare that the contrary was the case, and that all plonsnnt relations of any kind botwcon the judge and tho Throckrnorton family were abruptly tor- mlnated in 1884 and Wore never rammed.
