Otto Will
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
1Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
Me. Chief Justice Maxey,
This is an appeal from the decree of the Orphans’ Court of Cambria County dismissing the appeal from a decision of the Register of Wills in admitting to probate a paper purporting to be the last will and testament of Anastasia Otto, and refusing an issue d. v. n.
The issues raised were the testamentary capacity of the decedent and whether or not the will was procured by fraud, undue influence and duress. The court below held that the evidence offered by the contestant was not sufficient in law to warrant the granting of an issue. We agree with this.
