1Opinion of the Court
1. Counsel for the plaintiffs in error, in their oral argument before this court on the call of the case, having conceded that the attack made upon the will for lack of testamentary capacity was not supported by the evidence, that question will not be considered.
2. Under the evidence, the verdict of the jury, finding against the caveators' contention that the testator executed the will in question under fraud, duress, and undue influence, was demanded.
3. Under the foregoing ruling, a consideration of the special assignments of error becomes unnecessary.
