Shortly after the death of his fa- ther, Stilson Hutchins, the son, Lee, filed a caveat protesting against the admission fo probate of the latest dated of three wills left by Stilson | Hutchins. This protest against the {will was filed in May, 1912, and started the longest will contest ever {known in the local courts. Lee i Hutchins questioned the mental ca- ipacity of his father at the time of the making of the will.* The case was tried in the District | Supreme Court and occupied the at- tention of the court and a jury for five months, establishing a record in this district for a civil jury trial. Lee Hutchins was successful in breaking the will, but the executors appealed to the District Court of Appeals and the case was reversed and a new trial |ordered. The litigation spread until May 20 last, when the widow, the two sons and the granddaughter entered into a compromisc agreement by which an equal division of the es tate, valued at $4,000,000, was ef- fected.
