ACTED AS OWN LAWYER.
JUDGE MAKES A BLUNDER. Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn. LONDON, June 22. Mr Justice Bray, who left a gross estate of £107,338, like many other famous judges and lawyers, failed to make his own will correctly. It is certain his interlineations were unattested, and consequently they cannot be admitted to probate in this regard. He was in distinguished company, including his former schoolfellow, Lord St. Holier, for many years president of the Probate Court, also Lords Halsbury, Lyndhurst, and St. Leonards, and Judges Rentoul and Bacon.
