UNUSUAL APPEAL.
HEARING AT WELLINGTON. Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, Oct. 1. The Appeal Court to-day is hearing the appeal of Robert Keith Clemow of Auckland, and others against the'Guardian Trust, ’and others. The case concerns legacies totalling £950 under the will of James Joseph Burt Veale of Auckland, which.were granted appellants in the will, but not in the subsequent codicils. In a Supreme Court case at Auckland the testamentary capacity of Vealo, who was 72 years of age at the time of his death and had made the codicils a few months prior to his demise, was questioned, but Mr Justice Callan granted probate of the will and both, codicils. It is against this granting of probate that the appeal is being lodged.
