Zeigler v. Coffin

This is a contest of the will of Joseph H. Spence. Upon the conclusion of the evidence in the probate court, the affirmative charge was given for the proponent, resulting in a verdict and judgment admitting the will to probate, and contestant appeals to this court.

Many of the rules of law which have application to the facts of this ease have been fully and clearly established in Alabama by the decisions of this court, and do not need further elaboration or discussion. We think it appropriate to refer merely to such of them as are important to a decision of the questions raised on this appeal.
