Newport Probate Suit Sees Settlement Arrive At Court
The probate case over Isla Denis Morland of Newport returned before Mr Justice Street after settlement terms were reached. Wil Tim Williams sought probate of the will and codicils, while Lauren Mary Dermody opposed the grant claiming improper execution and undue influence. The judge previously refused probate on November 2 1907 and the March codicil was to be identified with the earlier will. The parties settled, with the defendant withdrawing charges of undue influence and fraud, and the plaintiff entering the witness box to deny the allegations under oath.
