John Mc Vickar and others v. William Constable and others, infants.
    1824. March 24.
    The court will not appoint any of its officers, as such, to act as guardians; nor appoint any person without his written consent.
    Mr. B. Robinson moved, that the Register, or assistant Rc- ° 7 gister, be appointed guardian (ad litem) for the infants.
   The Court

expressed its determination not to appoint any person guardian, without his written consent: nor to appoint any officer of this court, as such, to he guardian. It produces an inconvenient mixture of duties5 and is especially embarrassing, upon a change of the officers of the court. Motion denied.
