1ConcurrenceJustice O’Connor
specially concurring:
I concur in the conclusion reached that the judgment of the Superior Court be reversed and the cause remanded for the sole reason that the court refused to give the instruction limiting the will, which was admitted in evidence, to the question as to whether the note had been forgiven the defendant. But in my opinion, there was no error in permitting the defendant to testify over objection that the note in controversy belonged to her mother. 3 Wigmore on Evidence, sec. 1960; Maginnis v.
