Hunt v. Guerin

99 S.E. 809, 112 S.C. 305, 1919 S.C. LEXIS 119

Opinion

The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice Gage.

The issue tried is the legal residence of one A. Morton Hunt, lately dead, testate, at Charleston. The will was offered for probate, at Charleston, but issue was made that the adjoining county of Dorchester was the residence of the testator, and that the will ought, therefore, to be proved in that county.

The probate Court of Charleston sustained its jurisdiction, and the Circuit Court on appeal affirmed that judgment. And that is the sole issue here.

The testimony warrants a conclusion either way, and in such circumstances the judgment must be affirmed; ahd it is so ordered. Solomon’s case, 74 S. C. 189, 54 S. E. 207.
