Martina Wilcox and Jerry Hazard, al .: of North Kingstown, and Stephen Whichx, of Charlestown. It was debated whether they should divide the estate without proving the will of said Mary, and Thomas Hazird said he was very free to do it either way. and they all agreed the estate should be divided! without proving the will. Rob -: ert Wilcox deposed that in said will. which was read, half of said Mare's estate within doors was given Martha Wilcox, and that the executor of the will was Thoms Hizar.l. Robert Hizard de- posed that be read the will to Martha Wilcox, widow, daughter of Mary Haztri. (The above) depositions were brought in as evidence in a suit by Martha Wilcox against Thomas Hazard for! concealing the wi'l, and the court of Common Pleas having decided against her, she appealed the case to Supreme Court.)
