CHIEF BENEFICIARY TESTIFIES IN LAY WILL CASE Cushman A. Sears, 21, of Hartford, beneficiary to the amount of about $25, 000 under the will of his great-aunt, Aurelia C. Lay, late of Old Lyme, was on the wilness stand in the superior court ‘Wedneslay afternoon when court ad- journed'in the trral of the attempt of Ger- trude S. Selden of Hadlyme and others to break the Lay will. Mr. Sears was called to the stand by Attorneys Hull and Huil, who are defend- ing the will after the attorneys had had half a dozen witnesses on the stand giv- ing testimony intended to establish the mental capacity of Miss Lay. These wit- nesses included Maude Ashley, Elizabeth Ely, Jennie R. Davison, Frederick H. Kenyon, Philip 1. Larsen, Clara Garneau, Genevieve V. Kenyon and Joshua Sands. The last named testified that one of Miss Lay's diversions was playing checkers, and that she wlayed a game that almost always beat him. Mr. Sears testified that he had made hi: home with his great-aun from Aprii, 1917, till her death in the summer of 1919, going to_her home at her repeated reques At gne time she offered to give him $5,000 and an automobile, but this offer was not accepted. After he had been there a vear there was some com- plaint about him spending too much money and Migs Lay made an agrecment to allow him $50 per month. He re- ceived this un to the time of her deaih and a month thereafter. Asked about the making of a will in June, 1918, the witness said his aunt told him she was Bong to make it and he heard her tell Bugene D. Caulkins what bequests she wanted to make. These included $5.500 cach to severai nieces and nephews. a be- quest to Mrs. Celina Garneau, the house- keeper, and one to a Mr. Hughes. The witness said he thought he was to get $5.000 nd what was left after the be- quests to the niee and nephews. Two weeks after this conversation his aunt told him she had signed her will. Coming down to the will which ia cor- tested, the witness testified that about March 15, 1916, he came_home one day and found his aunt erying. She said she wanted to make some changes in her will and could not get Mr. Caulkins to come and see her about it. She asked him to £o and tell Mr. Caulking to come, which he did, but Mr. Caulkins passed it off, the witness said, and did not come. Some time later when the witness came home one night hiv aunt told him they were to have company to sumper, as Mr. Caul- kins was coming to the house. Court adjourned at this peint in the case. At the opening of court in the morning Attorneys Geary and Keefe, who are counsel for Mrs. Selden and the others who are trying to break the will, called to the stand Mrs. Nellie Hughes, who said she lived near Mrs. Lay for 40 years and had visited her often. She said that Mrs. Lay had & severe illness in Febru- 1919, and she died the following July. Witness had talked to Mrs. Lay, who seemed to have trouble to understand. She spoke about her grand-nephew, Mr. Sears, and seemed to like him. Nellie Loper Selden told what she knew of the life of Mrs. Lay and she was fol- lowed by Celina Garneau, the housekeep- | er, to whom Mrs. Lay willed $1,000. She testified to her knowledge of the mental condition of Mrs. Lay ths last year of her lite. Fugene D. Caulkins was recalled by Mr. Keefe and then the plaintiff side rested. Testimony during the trial has shown that it was very hard to understand i Lay when she talked, as she had no pal- ate. She was a large, heavy woman and had had a shock so that she did not leave the house and moved around in the house only with great difficulty. WEDDINGS. Levitsky—Cushien _The marriage of Fred W.
