Appeal of Bearmer

17 A. 749, 126 Pa. 77, 1889 Pa. LEXIS 837
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania·Decided April 29, 1889·No. No. 35·Published·Cited by 2 cases

Opinion

Pee Ctieiam:

The register of wills refused to admit the will of Margaret Bearmer to probate, and granted letters of administration upon her estate to the appellants. From this decision an appeal was taken to the Orphans’ Court. No issue was asked for at any stage of the proceedings. We have nothing before us but a question of fact upon which the Orphans’ Court has reversed the register, and admitted the will to probate. The court finds that “the will in question was duly executed, and the witnesses thereto were competent and honest.” We are not prepared to say this finding is not correct.

Decree affirmed and the appeal dismissed at the costs of the appellants.
