1Opinion of the CourtWeaver, J.
The facts leading up to the controversy involve a family history covering a period of more than half a century, with a multitude of details concerning some of which there is no material dispute and very many others about which there is a radical divergence in the testimony. It is manifestly impracticable to embody in this opinion- all the facts having more or less bearing, upon the merits of such a controversy, and the best we can. hope to do is to select so much of the material contained in the record as will fairly illustrate the nature of the claims we have to consider.
