Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William M. Hammond, Elba, for appellants.

BEATTY, Justice.

This is an appeal from a judgment entered on a jury verdict in favor of the proponent of a will. We affirm.

The proponent, Neva Donaldson, offered for probate the purported will of her deceased aunt, Minnie Cook. This will named the proponent as both sole beneficiary and executrix. A contest was filed by Minnie Cook's surviving sister and various nieces and nephews. Revocation and undue influence were alleged as grounds for the contest.
