Burke v. Kaley

138 Mass. 464 | Mass. | 1885

By the Court.

The facts that the defendant’s intestate had money in two savings banks, and that he drew out enough to pay his expenses, do not necessarily tend to prove any of the issues in the case. To admit them might open the door to a wide range of inquiry upon collateral issues; and we are of opinion that the court had the right to exclude them.

Exceptions overruled.
