BROWN, J.

No one testified that he saw Edward Niesen execute the will or that he, himself, acted as witness. A Mr. Wachlin, who was interested in a possible loan on the farm, testified that he inquired from Mr. Niesen whether the Nicolais had a written lease of the farm on which they lived. Mr. Niesen said they had something better and showed to Wachlin a two-page document bearing Niesen's signature and entitled "Last Will and Testament of Edward Niesen."
