1Opinion of the CourtBrown, J.

— Two appeals have been taken to this court involving the validity of the same last will and testament, one being taken from an order and decree of the Circuit Court for Polk County, made by Circuit Judge Taylor, denying the probate of a will made by Clara R. Starr in 1924 on the ground that she did not possess sufficient mental capacity at that time to execute a valid will, and the other appeal being taken from a decree made by Circuit Judge Petteway of the same Circuit, reversing the decree which had been entered by Judge Taylor, and ordering that the will be admitted to probate. ■
