WILLS--DEAF AND DUMB.
Mr. Carter's bill [H. R. 433) prescribing who may make a will, revocations and contest thereof and perpetuation of the same, was read the third time. Mr. Carter said the only change in the present law is that it revises the manner in which deaf and dumb persons may make a will. Under the present law there is no provision by which they can make a will. They ougnt to have an opportunity with the rest of us.
The bill passed--yeas, 72; nays, 4.
