He had made his will in 1842 but subsequently amended it with three codicils signed after he had suffered a paralyzing stroke in 1849. These codicils were contested by James and Daniel Parish, residuary devisees in the will, on the grounds of mental impairment. The New York Surrogate's Court (and subsequently, the state Court of Appeals) ultimately rejected their argument and upheld the codicils. This trial attracted a good deal of attention and involved testimony by several leading medical and legal experts. Our volume collects this testimony. Later editions were issued in 1858 and 1860.
