LOUISA CHARLOTTE ADAMS, late of Camberwell, Surrey, spinster, died on the 27th of
October, 1871, having executed a will dated the 25th of April, 1863, in which she
appointed Mr. George Saul executor. The will was originally a lithographed form,
with spaces left for the names of the legatees to whom the deceased intended to
give the effects in her house at her death, and also the residue of her personal
estate. The first space was filled up in the handwriting of the deceased, as
follows:-- "I give, devise, and bequeath unto" (in print) "Mr. Gabriel Kennard, son
of Mr. Kennard, of Frith Hall, East Farleigh, Kent, the sum of ten pounds; to my
kind friends, Miss Saul, Bow Lodge, Bow Road, Middlesex, and Mr. G. Kennard, Frith
Hall," (these words were written in ink, "G. Kennard, Frith Hall" over the words in
pencil, "Middlesex, Mr.," then followed in pencil) "Kennard, East Farleigh, Kent,
five pounds each for rings; to the daughters of Mr. William Austen, Marden, Kent,
the rest of my effects" (then in print) "all and every my household furniture,
linen and wearing apparel, books, plate, pictures, china, and also all and every
sum and sums of money which may be found in my house, or be about my person, or due
to me at the time of my decease. And also all my stocks, funds, and securities for
money, book debts, money on bonds, bills, notes, or other securities, and all and
every other my estate and effects whatsoever and wheresoever, both real and
personal, whether in possession or reversion, remainder or expectancy, unto" (a }{\

f1 \fs20 \cf1 blank space of four lines followed) "to and for }{\f1 \fs20 \i \cf1
their}{\f1 \fs20 \cf1 own use and benefit absolutely." The word "their" was
written in ink. The words in pencil had been partly rubbed out. The surviving
attesting witness, Mary Norman, stated that the deceased wrote something with a pen
and ink on the will immediately before the execution, but what, she could not say.
When the witnesses signed their names on the second side the first side was turned
back, and they did not see the writing on it. The persons interested in the pencil
writing renounced all claim to the residue left thereby.}\par

}{\f1 \fs20 \i \cf1 Searle}{\f1 \fs20 \cf1 moved for administration, with the
will annexed, to be granted to Miss Saul, as one of the residuary legatees named
therein (the executor having renounced probate) without the pencil writing. If
pencil and pen writings are mixed up together in a will, it has always been held
that the latter shews a final, the former a deliberative intention only; and the
pencil additions are omitted from the probate. In this case, without the pencil
writing, the sense of the instrument is tolerably clear: Hawkes v. Hawkes [FN1];
Williams' Executors, pt. 1, bk. 2, ch. 2, s. 5.}\par

If the part written in ink is taken with the printed words, the will is }{\*\

fs20 \cf1 capable of being read straight through; but, beyond the writing in ink,
there is some pencil writing, and some of the words in pencil are under those in
ink. It is clear, therefore, that some of the dispositions are intended to be
superseded by others; and, that being so, the presumption is, that the writing in
ink is the will, and not the pencil writing, especially as the former is of such
character as to work in with the printed matter. Not only is the pencil writing
written over, but it is partly rubbed out. I conclude, therefore, that it was the
intention of the deceased to supersede the pencil writing, and it will be excluded
from the probate.}\par
