Undue Influence Charms!.
The proceedings to set aside
the will were instituted by Caro
line Pi Leadbetter, a daughter of
Mr. Pittock. It (was charged by
Mrs. Leadbetter that the will was
the product and! result of undue
influence exercised over the tes
tator by teh men he appointed as
trustees, o that in fact it was
their will instead of Mr. Pittocks
The court held that this part
of the contest was not supported
by the evidence adduced in the
case, and, that Mr. Pittock assum
ed the initiative in framing the
will and dictated its tprms ac
cording to his own notion.
Will Vofrl, Claim,
As a matter oi law tho con
estaant maintained a further
Kround of attack! to the effect that
the will was void on its face, due
to the contention .that the trus
tees were Vf-sted with unrestrict
ed and unlimited discretion, that
the will did not specify with stfT
ficient certainty! the beneficiaries
of th trust, and that it was a
contravention orj the laws of Ore
