Hayes v. Rupey
Hayes v. Rupey
3 Ky. Op. 394; 1869 Ky. LEXIS 449
Hayes v. Rupey
Opinion of the Court
Opinion of the Court by
While the testamentary description of the advancement of money by the testator to his son Samuel O. Hayes, is vexatiously ambiguous as to the amount, we are inclined to concur with the circuit court in its interpretation; and, though the extraneous evidence would lead to a different construction, yet, the ambiguity being patent, that evidence was inadmissable, and cannot be judicially considered.
Wherefore the judgment of the circuit court is affirmed.
