Opinion

Opinion by

Judge Hardin :

The evidence in relation to the capacity of Margaret Shanklin to make a will and the influence of her sister, Elizabeth, over her, is so conflicting and unsatisfactory that we do not feel at liberty to reverse the judgment, based, as it is, on a second verdict against the validity of the will, found also in accordance with the judgment of the county court.

This judgment is therefore affirmed.
