Per Curiam,

The opinion of the learned judge below, ‍‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‍after a painstaking and accurate review of the whole case, concludes that while there is ‍‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‍some evidence which tends to sustain the contention of the appellants, yet taking it as a ‍‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‍whole the proof of testamentary capacity is so clear that a judge would be bound ‍‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‍to set aside an adverse verdict if rendered. In this conclusion we unanimously concur, and ‍‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌‌‌‍the judgment is therefore affirmed on the opinion.
