Although business has been con- ducted regularly before a judge of |m)< bate in Westerly, through a carcles error in law construction there been doubt as to the legality of the business transacted, and the wonder is that it was never discovered in his per- sistant comtest before that court by James W. Stillman, who e€eemed to find some kink in the law at almost | every mession of the court until the | estate in which he was interested was finally settled. Recently Benator Louis W. Arnold presented @ resolution vali- dating the mcts of the Westerly pro- bate court which was referred to the committee of the judiclary, and report bsa been made to the senate which provides for the election of a judge of probate for the town of Westerly and validates the acts of the present and all former judges of the probate court. When the court and practice act was passed about six years ago it did away with the appointment of probate Judges through an inadverten . remedy this, an act was passed viding for the judges, through e ror the town of Westerly was not in- cluded in the list of town thus privi- jeged. Therefore, since that time, the provats judge of Westerly has appa ently been acting without legal w: rant, and although during that period no conte: er court in i wil] has reached the high- important action has been taken many instances that might pecome subject for legal complications in later years if the valic not passed. the future.
