    Appeal dismissed because plaintiff failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that defendant owed a duty of care to the plaintiff: defendant acted as employee of BHLB on instructions from the plaintiff's sister, there was no proximity or contractual relationship with plaintiff, and the subject will had been destroyed by the testatrix so no actionable loss attributable to defendant was established.
