Evening Republican, Volume 20, Number 94, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 19 April 1916 — Will From Battle Field Valid. [ARTICLE]

Will From Battle Field Valid.

—The widow of a soldier asked advice of Mr. Fordham at West London about her husband’s will, bequeathing insurance to his mother; • " v After glancing at the documents Mr. Fordham said that in ordinary circumstances it would not hold good 4 because it was not dated or witnessed. But a will scribbled on the field; of battle on the back of an envelope or scrap of paper was valid." —Lon don Chronicle.
