hold that such bequest or devise

of being in violation of statutory
regulations-nevertheless it may

WITNESSES-
Only witnesses who are exper
ienced in a certain rade can testify
to the custom existing in that trade,
and their testimony is not to be
given as a matter of opinion, but as
a matter of facts. Tillyer et al. v.
Glass Co.
209.
The question as to whether
well produces gas in paying quan-
tities is a question for the jury to
decide, and a witness cannot be
called to decide such fact for them.
Ohio Oil Co. v. McCrory.
441.
The witnesses might be called
to give the jury evidence of facts
which would enable it to arrive at
a conclusion as to what a well
should produce to justify marketing,
but a witness cannot be asked the
very question that is involved in the
litigation, for if that was SO it
would not be necessary to have a
jury.
