Ninety-eight unopened' wills, dating from 1740 to 1760, have been found in the archives of the town of Szekesfehervar, in Hungary. These wills, which may possibly cause lawsuits and the transfer of property, will be officially opened by the Burgomaster and then made public by the tribunal, after which they will be returned to the archives. Apart from their value from an antiquarian point of view, they will afford an interesting heraldic study. They are expected to throw light on the origin of many old Hungarian families.
