A WILL CASE.

A WIFE INADEQUATELY PBO YIDED FOB.

(Per. Press Association.) Auokland, last night

Mr Justice Edwards, in the Supremo Oourt, gave judgment in the will case in which Annie Harrow, widow of tbo late Enwin Harrow, of Lake Tokapuna, sought to obtain a greater measure of support from her late husband’s estates than provided in the will. His Honor said he thought the sum of £IOO per annum was the least which the tes.tator ought to have allowed to his wife during her life, and j that to that extent he ought to have made provision for her when he died. The present value of tbo widow’s life interest, I under a settlement which had been pre- I viously made by the testator, was less than I £25 por annum. This must be made up to such a sum as would ensure her recoiv- I ing at leaßt £IOO per annum. The order I of the Court was that there should be paid I to the plaintiff during her lifetime out of I the estate of the testator the sum of £1 | 10s por week as from the date of his I tjho estate, capital, and interest to I stand f charged jyith the payment of this annuity.
