bate Expected to Take

GREAT IN—TE—R-EST IS
SHOWN IN THE CASE
Plaintifls Claim Uncle Was
of Unsound Mind When
Will Was Dram
One of the most important legal
battles of the year in Fairileld Cmn-
ty. which is expect-3d to stretch over
a period of four weeks in its presen-
tation and contentions. will oprn up
in Superior Cour: in Bridgeport this
week before Judge John \V. Banks
and jury when the case of Flank Mc-
from Probate .of the estate of John
McMullen, late of this city, is called.
An array of legal luminaries will be
found representing both parties.
The appeal is based on the allow-,
ance of probate of the will of the
deceased, dated August 19. 1921. in
which the bulk of a two million dol-
lar estate is left to Cornell Univer-
sity to the exclusion of any legacy
to the plaintiffs. nephews of the de-
ceased. The plaintiffs are both resi-
dents of California. the home of the
deceased up to a few years before his
death in Norwalk during November.
1921. .
It is alleged in the appeal that the
deceased at the time of and prior to
his death was of unsound'mind and
memory and had not sumcient testa‘
mentary capacity to execute the, said
will and that he was subject to
epileptic fits. A further allegation of
undue~ influence practiced upon him
by his niece. Laura A. Hughes to the
effect that the plaintiffs were men
of considerable wealth. is also made.
The case will open probably on
W’ednesday. after the $15,000 death
action of Howard \V. \Vakeman. ad-
ministrator of the estate of Edward
Griffin against The Connecticut Co.
is concluded. This case has been par-
tially tried and is expected to be
finished by today.
The law firm of Keogh and Candee
is appearing for the plaintiff and

Quinlan. Frederick C. Taylor and
Cummings and Leckwood for the
defendants.
