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.

Henry Parish, a New York merchant, died in 1856 at age 69. 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 it involved testimony by several leading medical and legal experts. At the time of this pamphlet's publication, Earle was visiting physician to the New York City Lunatic Asylum. He went on to a prestigious career in psychiatry, including as one of the founders of the American Medical Association, and is best known for his many visits to institutions, which included giving instructional and entertaining lectures to patients on a variety of subjects. Charles Allen [1797-1869], a former owner of this pamphlet, was a lawyer, Congressional representative from Massachusetts from 1849-1853, and chief justice of the Suffolk County Superior Court from 1858-1867. His ownership of this title reflects the level of attention the case received. OCLC locates 1 copy (at SUNY-Albany). Not in Cohen, which lists a composite volume by Trow that includes this title.

The New York Surrogate's Court (and subsequently, the state Court of Appeals) ultimately rejected their argument and upheld the codicils.

Porter, a lawyer for the contestants, was a highly ranked member of the New York Bar and was involved in state politics. He went on to hold a seat on the New York Court of Appeals before returning to private practice; he was also one of the prosecutors of Charles Guiteau for the assassination of President James Garfield in 1881.
