In the matter of the estate of EDWIN M. SQUIER, deceased.

On the facts as shown by the evidence in this case, held, that the prerogative court correctly found that the will of the above named deceased was not the product of undue influence, conspiracy or fraud, and that the testator at the time of making said will was of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding.

PER CURIAM.

The decree under review will be affirmed (with a minor qualification presently to be noted), for the reasons stated in the conclusions of the vice-ordinary.

The qualification is that the concluding language of the opinion seems to read for a dismissal of the appeal instead of an affirmance of the decree of the orphans court; and this language seems to be carried into the decree of the prerogative court. This is a mere slip of the pen, for it is clear that the affirmance was intended and should have been decreed. With this formal modification the decree is affirmed. For affirmance — THE CHIEF-JUSTICE, TRENCHARD, PARKER, BLACK, CAMPBELL, LLOYD, CASE, BODINE, VAN BUSKIRK, KAYS, HETFIELD, DEAR, JJ. 12.

For reversal — None.
