GARFIELD, Justice.

The most important question on this appeal is whether gifts totaling about $88,000 in value, by testatrix in her lifetime, to her three sisters who were made executrices of her will were in violation of an alleged oral agreement between testatrix and her husband who predeceased her. Following trial to the court in probate it was held such violation was not shown. We affirm the decision.
