HEIMAN, J.

The defendant appeals1 from the judgment of conviction, rendered after a jury trial, of murder in violation of General Statutes § 53a-54a. The defendant claims that the trial court improperly excluded testimony of the victim's mother relating to the victim's statement to her ten days prior to his death concerning his fear of his demise. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
