Doane v. Lake

Tenney, J., orally.—The will maybe good and effectual as to all its provisions, limited only by such rights as the appellant may have in the estate. But there can be no mode of giving it such an effect, except by the allowance and approval of it. After its allowance and approval, its import may be modified, at law, so far as may be requisite for securing to the appellant whatever rights he may be able to prove. Decree affirmed. No costs.
