Brewer. ¥ The attorneys for Miss Naylor are seeking to show that Mrs. Naylor was subjected to undue influence in mak- ing her will, dated Nov. 15, 1915, at Sherbrooke, Caanda, in favor of Mr, ‘Brewer and that at’ the time she was of unsound mind and incapable of properly directing the disposition of her property. Thrée Other Wills as Evidence. In addition to the will giving the property to Brewer, three other wills of Mrs. Naylor's were laid in Tuesday morning as exhibits, one of these dated July 17, 1907, another November 27, 1908, and still another dated at Di- nant, France, August 20, 1913. In each of these three wills the testatrix gives absolutely and in fee simple, with the exception "of a few legacies; all of her estate to her daughter, Miss Mary. G. Naylor, whom she was desctibed several witnesses as loving more dear- ly than anyone else in the world and whom she (Mrs. Naylor) to- members of her family, counsel and'friends al- ways talked of as a brilliant and ac- complished young woman and -for whom she ever expressed in stronges: terms her devotion and love. Was at Dr. Givens’. In their endeavor to establish that Mrs. Naylor at the time of making her will of last fall in which she left her property to Brewer was of un- sound mind, counsel for Miss Naylor introduced as a witness Dr. Esther Lyons Stevenson, a woman physician, who is first assistant at Dr. Givens' sanitarium for the treatment of ner- vous and mental diseases, at Stamford, Conn. Dr. Stevenson testified that when Mrs. Naylor came ehere . for treatment, December 5, 1914, she was addicted to the morphine in doses ag- gregating 12 grains daily and that she ‘was in the habit of drinking an ounce and a half of whiskey before each meal and'at bedtime. Dr. Stevenson saidthat the doses of drugs were gradually reduced during Mrs. Nay- lor’s course of treatment, but the pa- tient made it known that she did not want her regilar supply of whiskey cut dewn.- “The-Man From Lake George” - Dr. Stevenson, said that while Mrs. Naylor was a patient at the sanitar- _jinum ghe talked much about herself and her personal affairs, of her liter- ary attainments and her -.theatrical capabilities. =She also talked of “af- fairs” that. several men had tried to establish -with her during the years followinz - the death of her husban George Prentice Naylor, in July, 19 Among other men who figured in these “affairs” was one Mrs. Naylor refer- Ted to as the man from Lake George. He had not Seen her since the days ‘When they were both young and Dr. Stevenson told of Mrs. Naylor men- tioning that she had receiveq a letter from him in which she found herself described as ‘being remembered as a golden-haired young girl. This ewvi- dently referred to a sister of Mrs. Nay- lor's, who had golden hair, but, Dr. Stevenson said, Mrs. Naylor overlooked the fact, got some peroxide it to change the shade of her dark tresseés to a blondish hue. Fifty-one Love Letters From Reno. At the opening of the afternoon ses- sion of the court, which was mostly given over to the reading of letters from Mrs. Naylor to her daughter in France, and 51 fervent letters writ- ten to Mrs. Naylor from Reno, where Mr. Brewer went to get a divorce, At- torney John P. Wells of the firm of Cate, Wells and White of Sherbrooke, g was recalled to the stand and asked as to Mrs. Naylor's mental con- dition at the time, September 1, 1915, ‘when she made the will giving four- fifths of the income of her property to Brewer. Mr. Wells said he consid- ered . Naylop mentally capable at that time of making a will; that he had no doubt whatever on this point. Attorney Charles Dickinson White, Mr. Wells’ partner, made a like asser- tion as to Mrs. 'Naylors condition when she came to the office Sept. 4 of last year to have some changes made in the phraseology of the will. He said he considered her mind clear and that she discussed various topics with him In a manner to show that she was of a very high degree of intelli- gence and that he had-no doubt that she was mentally capable. Mr. White said that Mr. Brewer was at his office with Mrs. Naylor on the occasion of the September 4 visit. Affectionate Letters to Daughter. For letters, written by Mrs. Naylor to her daughter in France were read at the afternoon session. In these letters, written mostly during the spring and summer of 1915, Mrs. Nay- lor repeatedly declared her love and deep affectisn for her daughter, told her as a secret that Mr. Brewer had come into her life and that she cared for him as she had never cared for|kind any other man and that she was about —_— they should be granted most of the concessions asked.

These letters were laid in as evidence. Brewer Went to Reno. During Attorney Wells’ time on the Wwitness stand it was brought out that Brewer had consulted with him rela- tive to going to Reno, Nevada, to get a divorce from his wife ,whom, it was represented, had deserted him 17 years before 1915. Mr. Wells said he pre- sumed that Mr. Brewer desired the di- vorce so that he could marry Mrs. Naylor. . Wrote Four Letters a Day. Attorney Joseph H. Choate, Jr., in- troduced a package of 51 letters. writ- ten by Brewer to Mrs. Naylor baetween May of last year and January of this year. They were remarkable epistles and frequently caused the court au- dience, counsel inciuded, to be con- vulsed with laughter. The first of the series of letters were written en route from New York to Reno, but the great majority of them were dated in the latter city. At times Brewer wrote Mrs. Naylor as many as four letters a day and some of these were remark- able combinations of assertions of fervent love and business sagacity. - Had Power of Attorney. They were addressed to “Sweet- heart,” “Sadie Love,” “My Own Darl- ing” and other endearing terms. In one letter followed ‘an assertion of | undying love, with a suggestion that Mrs. Naylor send him additional cop- ies of the power of attorney that she had conferred upon , giving him the right to buy and sell property, sign checks and do other things in her name, and also to send him a copy of the will under which he became her legatee.
