Judge Costello Refuses to Upset Will of Wormer Hotelkeeper, hi
. Which Mrs. Bowler, Housekeeper, la a Beneficiary—Not Un.
usual for Perfect Strangers to 'Receive Gifts. Says Judge
Costello-AOrders Trial to Proceed.
The Surrogate Court action to upset the last will and testament
of the laite John S. Bedford, hotel man, concluded its first day before
Judge Costello on Monday and was adjourned until Thursday. With
,thirty witnesses yet to be iheard, the trial V expeCted to run well Into
Friday. The case has aroused widespread. interest,. •
At the outSet on Monday the onus was placed on the executor,
F. R. Darrow, to prove that deceased was of sound mind when he
made his last wilt and that undue influence was not exercised, as
alleged. .After a day's testimony His Honor ruled that the exeCutor
had made out a prinfa facie case and there was no reason, on (the evi-
dence so far.adduced, Why the cavial filed by Mrs. Gladys Allard,
daughter, and John S. Bedford, jr., son, should succeed. His Honor
therefore dhifted the burden of proof to Mrs. Allard and, •John Bed.
ford'and ordered the .case to proceed on Thursday. '
• "So far theft has been nothing produced to dititin,guish this will
front ,dozens of others. It has been the experience of all of •us to
find that gifts to perfect strangers are hard to understand,' said
Judge Costello after hearing argument of counsel:
• It Was disclosed during the evidence that John $.,Bedford was
at one time worth front $40,000 to.$100,000, One counsel stated
the estate was not now worth a fraction of that amount. Evidence
yet to be given is expected to reveal particulars of the expenditure of
rentals amounting to $4,300 a year for the past two years, the par.
ticulars of heavy dettts incurred since Mrs. Bedford's death two years
ago, the placing of St t,6.00 Mortgages on the property and the dis-
position of $10,000 received from the sale of the hotel chattels to
Litt 8/, titt. The allegations, of undue influence being exercised re-
volve. around Mrs. Mary Bowler,• beneficiary under thew:ill, and
housekeeper for Mr. Bedford a.fter his wife's death. • •
