Who Died First Seen Issue in Probating Will NORTH HAVEN (AP) Questions about the sequence of the three deaths in the Guiller- mo Aillon murder, case could delay the probating of the mul- timilhon dollar will of J. George Montano, a lawyer said Thurs day. John A. Carrozzella, a Wall- ingford attorney, is executor of Barbara Anion's estate. She and her parents, Mr.

and Mrs. Mon tano, were slain Aug. 13, 1972 in the spacious Montano house. Aillon, Barbara's husband, was convicted Saturday of murdering the three. His daughter, Catherine, was found unharmed in the house when the bodies were (ILscov-ered.

The prosecution did not try to show who died first, second and last. Montano, a lumber company executive and real estate owner, directed in his will that his estate be shared equally by his two children, Barbara and James, after his wife's death. If Barbara died before her father, there could be a question of whether a share of the Montano wealth would go into her estate and be inherited by Catherine, Carrozella indicated. Catherine, nearly 20 months old, has been in the custody of Aillon's sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs.

Charles Go-las of East Hartford, since Aillon was arrested in August 1972. Montano also made Catherine: beneficiary of half of hisj $100,000 life insurance about onej month before he was killed. The Golas couple won the! fight to keep the baby after a probate court struggle initiated by members of the Montano; family. i A court spokesman said Wednesday the custody order) would remain in force at least as long as Aillon's case is in the courts. Howard Jacobs, Aillon's law-i yer, has said he would appeal the conviction.

Aillon is expected to be sentenced within two weeks. IfnTTT Student, buiineis or professional perwn you'll accomplish so much more when you learn to read dynamically the Evelyn Wood way.
