Per Curiam,

The learned court below was entirely ‍‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‍correct in excluding the offers to prove the contents of the alleged second will. ‍‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‍There was no sufficient proof of the execution of that will, and hence its ‍‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‍contents could not be given in evidence. The reasons for the rulings of the ‍‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‍court are sufficiently set forth in the opinion on the motion for a new ‍‌‌‌‌‌​‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌‌​​‌‍trial and need not be repeated.

Judgment affirmed.
