Wills — execution—attestation. In the Estate of

Willis (April 4, 1960) evidence was given by the two

persons whose names appeared as witnesses in the

attestation clause on the alleged last will of the

deceased that, although the signatures were theirs,

they were quite certain that the deceased never

appended her signature to any document in their

presence. Stevenson, J. said that he accepted such

evidence, which had been given by persons of

impeccable respectability and of very considerable

intelligence, and accordingly held that the alleged

will had not been duly executed. (J. B. G.
