Facts
Testator's will consisted of three typewritten paragraphs which were neither dated, witnessed, nor executed. At the bottom of the will, testator made an additional bequest in his own handwriting, which was signed and dated. Testator had intended for Wickham to serve as his witness to the will at one point, but this was not done. When Wickham later reminded testator of this, testator told him that he had changed the will by codicil, and did not need Wickham to witness it. The “codicil” was at the bottom of the page in handwriting which was signed and dated. The testator was actually an attorney who had properly done a number of wills for various clients in his practice. Proponents of the will (P) appeal the lower court's order denying probate.
