1Opinion of the CourtMontgomery, J.

This action was brought by appellants to resist the probate of the will of Ann Maria Stamets, on-the ground that said will was executed by the testatrix while of unsound mind, and that the execution of the same was procured by fraud and undue influence. The cause was tried by a jury, and resulted in a verdict for appellees. Appellants’ joint motion for a new trial was overruled, and they severally excepted. Judgment was entered upon the verdict. All questions upon appeal are presented by the joint assignment that the court erred in overruling appellants’ motion for a new trial.
