Ellis v. Ellis
133 Mass. 469, 1882 Mass. LEXIS 263
Opinion
The question put by the counsel of the appellants, and excluded, was ambiguous. It might, and probably would, be understood by the witness as calling for his opinion as to the mental-condition of the testator. It was competent for the court to require the appellants’ counsel to change the form of his question so as to avoid this ambiguity.
Exceptions overruled.
