“When a person's engagement in a course of conduct or an act ... is relevant to the resolution of a controversy over an occurrence which becomes the subject of subsequent litigation ... declarations of the person of his present intention or plan to do so, are competent, substantive, and original evidence of his probable engagement in the course of conduct or act. [ Id. at 389, 185 A. 2d 9 (emphasis added).]”
