Elliott v. Hiddlesongreen1 sentence1985Our basic disagreement with Harold in this case relates to the strength of the presumption “that a testator intended to treat adopted children in the same manner as natural children,” and in the strength a counter-showing must possess to overcome that presumption and establish that a testator intended “to distinguish between natural and adopted children as objects of his bounty.” Elliott , at 144. | 1 | 1 |

2 sentences1933The facts and circumstances surrounding each disappearance which tend to affect the inference of continued life or early death that the minds of reasonable men, anxious only to arrive at the truth, would draw, should be received in evidence in the trial of these eases; and then, guided by the established presumption that one who disappears under ordinary circumstances is presumed to live for seven years thereafter, the fact of continued life or previous death at the important date should be determined by the jury if there is sufficient evidence in the case to warrant a finding that the establi 1927The *560 undisputed record sufficiently sustains the plaintiff’s case in this respect.” In Lemire v.
