The verdict was to the effect-that the paper propounded was void for undue influence. A motion for a new trial on the surrogate’s minutes was entertained. After argument, the surrogate, under section 2530 of the Code of Civil Procedure,* set aside the verdict with a new trial. This verdict was rightly held to have been contrary to the evidence. The witness George E. Hebei had undertaken to testify that the testatrix had told him she was under restraint, as she had to do what the proponent, her son, wanted. Nevertheless that Hebei attested the will as a subscribing witness, and even that he communicated this statement of duress to his employer, the late John J. Trapp, who had replied, “ You know the will will never stand.” The jury might well have been cautioned against giving weight to testimony inconsistent with the act of subscribing as a witness to the "will, especially when such testimony was given after the death of *933Mr. Trapp, an attorney oí excellent standing, who had drawn the will and attested its execution. The order of the Surrogate’s Court of Queens county, setting aside the jury’s verdict, is hereby affirmed, with costs. Jenks, P. J., Thomas, Mills, Putnam and Kelly, JJ., concurred. Order of the Surrogate’s Court of Queens county, setting aside the verdict of the jury, affirmed, with costs.
