Bishop of New London, who tried o break the will. The jury returned a verdict Thursday sistaining the will. The motion to set aside the verdict and for a new trial is brought on the grounds that the verdict is againdt the evidence and the weight of the evi- dence, against the law and the evidence, and also that the court erred in reject- ing the testimony of Belton A. Copp. who, in his direct examination, testified that he drew the will of Ellen Benham, and who, in his cross examination, was asked certain questions to which the appellees objected and to the rulings of the court in sustaining said objections and _appellant took exceptions, “ It is claimed the ruled out questions were relevant . and material. In the motion to arrest judgment and grant~ a - new trial the claim is made that in ruling upon the admissibility. of the cross examination of wWitnesses of- fered by, the appellee during the intro- duction. of his testimony at the opening of the case, the court erroneously ap- plied and exercised its discretion with referenice to the -order of proof in: such a manner as to exclude and reject prop- er ‘cross-examination of the appellee's said witnesses and the “appellant had no opportunity at any later stage in the case to cross examine said witnesses with reference to subjects upon which sald witnesses were examined in their direct examination and the cross ex- amination of whom on - said subjects was rejected by the court. ¥ JURY CASES ASSIGNED FOR SUPERIOR COURT The following cases for jury trials were assigned at for superior court shoru calendar session here Friday: Tuesday, Dec. 1ith, Nahass ys.

The claimant received injuries con- sisting of bruising the muscles of his leg on June 28 for which compensation has been paid up to Oct. 19, but it is founa that the period of disabflity has been prolonged by the failure of the claimant to exercise his leg as he should have dons in which event he would have been able to work before this time, the commissioner declares.
