REASONS ' y HIS.' ACTION
Believes M Francis Was of Sound
Mlad at Tinas She nisamed of Her
Property aad That She Wd
Mot Afterward Merry.
By an opinion filed yesterday Regis
ter of Wills Hopkins tustains the will
r. ,ir n.phol FrancU. late of Provi
dence, and revokes the letters of ad
ministration granted at tne request vi
four of her children soon after her
death.
(Mrs. Francis was well known in tne
northern part of the city and left a
vihuhi. ! consisting of property
in this city and Mooslc. She was sur
vived iby six children, and four of these,
iv,n Munii Francis. Mrs. Mary Jane
Thompson, Mrs. Mary An-n Colvln.and
William Francis, she cut on wun a
eaoh. To her other two children.
James Francis, of this city, and Mrs.
Elisabeth Bea.le. of New York, she gave
her entire estate, the son receiving tne
largest share.
Un Vrnnrie died on April 7. 1895. and
tiiavinir thai no will was In existence
Evan fMorrls Francis asked for and ob
tained letters of administration on tne
estate. Later on James Francis of
fered the will for prdbate and subse
quently the proceedings to have the pro
bate of the will set aside were Insti
tuted. In dismissing the application
yesterday Register of Wills Hopkins
handed down the following opinion: ,
Opinion of Rcglat.r Hopkins.
This case came up before the register
...... iu.fttl.in ami citation IO 8 now
cause why the probate of the will of
Rachel crancis, ueceamn, nn uk m
stricken off and letters testlmentary
granted thereon to James Francis re
voked. The parties to the controversy
both on the part of the petitioner and
Miuniiaiiii ant children of the de
ceased. The contestant by their peti
tion and allegations attack -the validity
of the will and allege:
First, that Kaenei rrancis, ai me
time of executing said will, was of un
sound mind.
Second, That arter the Hearing nau
commenced and was In progress, they
ca-me In by supplemental petition and
were allowed to amend their 'bill of
complaint In which they allege as n
further reason tor setting asiue saiu
m niaiminir that bv reason of said
subsequent marriage the will falls un
der the provisions or tne sixieenui sta
tion of the act of 1833, and was therefore
revoked and void at the time ot us
probate.
Th. rannniton.t bv their answer
deny all the allegations as set forth by
the petition, ootn as to wHmuiij
Incapacity and subsequent marriage.
Many Witnesses Examined.
nl.o kiirlnir In thA case WSS QUlte
extended, and the testimony of many
witnesses was taxen coin on me pan
of the contestant and respondent, and
as In most of the cases of this character
the testimony Is more or less conflict
ing. .
The first question that we are called
to pass upon under the evidence ad
duced upon the hearing Is this: Was
the testatrix, Rachel Francis, of un
sound mind st the time she executed
said will? If the evidence upon this
point was sufficient to warrant us in
answering it in the affirmative, we
iM mtrm hara and there would be no
necessity for considering the further
allegations or the contestants.
The register has gone over the testl-
n oarafutlv u well ts the briefs
of law, submitted by the counsel for
the parties bearmg upon tne queeuuns
of insanity, and, after a due and full
consideration of all the facta as testi
fied to, we are of the opinion that the
burden of proof warrants us In finding
that Rachel Francis, at the time of her
executing said will, possessed her usual
mental capacity, and was capable of
making a will.
The contestants allege a marriage be
tween one John Williams and the testa
trix in the year 1885 or 1SS. They Jo
not claim to be able, nor have they been
able, to prove the marriage except by
general reputation and cohabitation,
and in support of this claim a number
of witnesses have been sworn whose
testimony is somewhat conflicting in
many respects, yet It establishes such
an Intimate relation between the testa
trix and John Williams which might
justify the register in finding that they
were married, were that the only testi
mony In the case.
Testimony Vas Mors Positive.
But the respondents deny with more
positive testimony of a number of wit
nesses that the testatrix and John Wil
liams were ever married, or that any
martial relations existed between them
and with uncontradicted testimony es
tablish the fact that the testatrix was
married to one Thomas Watkins In the
year 1870, and that they lived together
as man and wife until some time In
the year 187S, when for some cause
they separated but were never di
vorced,, and said Watkins went to a
place In Patagonia, South America,
where he made his home and was living
there In good health In the year 1870.
This brings us to the question, was
Rachel Francis, at the time she exe
cuted her will, a single woman, and
did sh afterwards marry John Wil
liams? The fact of her marriage with Thom
as Watkins having been established
All Her Life-Happy Release at Las
of Mitt Allca Young, Who Re
tidst al 392 Alexander Strati,
Rochester, N. Y.
(From the Rochester Democrat andChron-
. Icle.) .
Our representative was received very
pleasantly at 32 Alexander street, by Miss
Alice Young, who told hew since childhood
she had been held In the bondage of pain
from her back, never remembering the
time that she had not suffered pain or
aches In the region of the kidneys. Many
were the means she used to find relief, but
there seemed no remedy for her case and
she remained a captive; then along comes
these little enemies to backache, Doan's
Kidney Pills, and a half box releases the
bonds, as one by one the aches and pains
disappear, she finds herself a slave to
pain no. more, by their continued use.. She
says: "I was entirely relieved of all my
suffering and now I am perfectly strong,
healthy and well."
"How did you take this remedy?" Mis
Young was asked by our representative.
She replied that she followed directions
explicitly. Miss Young then told bow the
malady affected her, saying her symptoms
were: "Stooping, bending over, walking
or standing any length of time always
gars me a pain In the small of my back.
I had a pain In ths kidneys all the time
and If I caught cold It would always settle
there; the pain I suffered was of a very ex
hausting nature: at night I could only lis
flat on my back, any other position caus
ing pain and suffering; the nerves passing
up my back were affected and this brought
with It severe headaches, but as I said be
fore. Doan's Kidney Pills have removed
all pain and suffering entirely and I never
felt better ana neaitnier in my we."

HELD
D ACE
and no evidence having been adduced
to show that aald Watkins eras dead,
or that the testatrix was divorced from
him at the thne of her alleged marriage
with John Williams, leads the register
to the conclusion that the said Rachel
Francis was a married woman at the
time she executed her will, and that
aha was Incapable of entering Into any
marriage relation while the said Thom
as Watkins was alive, and she. not
lawfully separated from him.
Not Heard from la Seven Years.
The petitioners have attempted to
show that the said Watkins had not
been heard from fur over seven years,
and they therefore urge that he must
be considered dead. This claim might
t loners having failed to show that
case of a aeconl marriage or In admin
istering upon an estate, but the peti
tioners having failing to show that
the aald Thomas Watkins Is dead, and
the respondents having shown that he
was alive and In good health in the
year 1876, It la presumed that he la still
alive until proven otherwlae.
After due consideration of all the
testimony, the register is ot the opinion
that the evidence is Insufficient to es
tablish a marriage between the testa
trix, Rachel Francis, and the said John
Williams, even If the said testatrix had
been capable of entering Into a mar
riage relation during the year 18S5 or
1888.
The petition Is therefore dismissed at
the cost ot the petitioners, and letters
of administration heretofore granted
upon said estate are revoked.

. I. II. Baras to Take This
Step la the Matter.
But for the absence of (Major Everett
Wferren from the city there would have
been a libel suit 'begun In the office of
Prothonotary Pryor yesterday wth At
torney Ira II. Burns, the plaintiff. At
torney Con Smith, defendant, and dom
astes alleged tn the eum of 350.000.
The Tribune exclusively set forth the
de-tails of this case a few days ago. On
Wednesday, Oct. 10, 1888, James Jen
nings, then 13 years ohl, a son of John
G. Jennings, of Mlnooka, was a pas
senger on the train that was wrecked
at iMud Run Station on the Lehigh Val
ley railroad, ar.d In that wreck he al
leged that 'he was Injured to the extent
of a broken (breast ibone and several
rrbs, all of which, he claims, left him a
cripple for life.
The elder Jennings brought a 120,000
suit against the company for damages
and retained Hmlth as counsel on the
basts of 20 per cent, of the verdict. The
case was first tried before the late
Judge John F. Connolly and the jury
returned a verdict of $5,000 in favor of
the plaintiff. The court Immediately
set the verdict aside on the ground
that It was unconscionable.
- Attorney Smith's Statement.
'Attorney Smith made the Statement
that Judge Connolly had been bribed by
Attorney Burns to set a Ide any verdict
In favor of the fdalntlff. At the sec
ond trial of the case ex-County Detec
tive Thomas K. iKeynolds was accused
of embracery, that is, Jury flxlng, In
the Interest of the railroad company;
he was tried and acquitted of It, but
directed to pay the costs.
Next Attorney 'Smith charged Deputy
Prothonotary IMyron J. Ka-sjn with
packing the Jury. An affidavit, signed
'by Jennings, embodying this charge,
was made to the court at the May term
of common pleas 'before Judge Arch
bald, hut It could not be substantiated,
anJ the court ordered Jenr,4r.ga to be
held In the ram of 3500 to answer In the
criminal court for perjury. Judge
Archibald refused to let Jennings off on
his own recognisance and Smith be
came hi surety.
Keltcratod His Charges.
Smith recently took the Issue to the
supreme court and filed a paper book
In 'Which he reiterated the aspersions on
the character of the late Judge Con
nolly. Attorney Burns declares that
there Is libel 'bristling In every tine of
fimlth's 'book, and especially where he
Is charged with 'bribing Judge Con
nolly. Attorneys O'Brien & Kelly and Major
Everett '.Warren represent 'Mr. Burns
and t'he declaration will perhaps be
filed today or (Monday.
