In re the Estate of Alper

Pee Curiam.

The decree of the former Prerogative Court is affirmed, and generally for the reasons stated in the opinion *105 of the learned Yice-Ordinary. The proofs do not establish the charge that the paper writing purporting to be the decedent’s last will and testament was the product of undue influence.

We express no opinion as to the admissibility of declarations allegedly made by one of the subscribing witnesses since deceased which, in the view of appellant, “indicated that pressure was brought to bear on the decedent when the will was executed.” See Whitemack v. Stryker, 2

For affirmance—Chief Justice Yanderbilt, and Justices Case, Heher, Waoheneeld, Burling and Ackerson—6.

For reversal—None.
