New York, 1895
Surrogate Weller on Friday admitted to probate the wills of Stephen H. Bedell, Increase C. Hendrickson, Wilhelm Schmidt, and Mary Ann Coughlin. Decrees were filed in the accounting of the executor of Phebe A. Hawxhurst, Henry Van Nostrand, and Abraham Vooris.
Testimony was taken in the contested will case of Elbert Ludlum, late of Oyster Bay. The testimony was confined to medical experts in senile dementia.
Dr. Flynn of Jamaica testified that the disease ran from incipiency to from five to twelve years, and was regarded as an incurable malady. While the victim was ordinarily incapacitated for business, he was capable of performing certain acts requiring but a small amount of brain power. Lucid intervals were possible. Dr. Auger gave similar testimony.
Surrogate Weller yesterday admitted to probate the wills of Waite S. Ludlum, John Henry Hilderbrant, Zachariah Roe, and Susan Mary Maloy.
