DEVINE, J.

This is an appeal from a judgment denying probate of a purported will, which had been entered upon verdicts that the decedent did not have testamentary capacity and that she was acting under undue influence. Proponents appeal also from an order denying motion for judgment notwithstanding verdicts.

On the issues of testamentary capacity, the appeal is based entirely on insufficiency of the evidence to support the verdict.
