IN RE EVAN 3.

' Mr. ROGERS appeared in support of this petition, which
have a Master's report confirmed. The only ques-
he opinion of the Court was sought was,
whether or not certan: _

;nfants were infants possessed of an
_
of the I,7irth netitione
h section of
absolute estate within the mcan,..„-
the 11th Geo. IV. and 2d William IV. ...
were three sisters, and at present presumptive heirs of a tie-
ceased brother. Their father and mother were still alive,
and the petitioners' interests might consequently be entirely
defeated by the birth of a son, or partially by the birth of
one or more sisters. The Acts in question provided for
the leasing of infants' estates, and the Master, to whom the
matter bad been referred, by his report had found that pe-
titioners were not seized of an absolute estate within the
meaning of the Acts. He (Mr. Rogers) submitted that
the Master had come to an erroneous conclusion.

His Honour the MASTER of the ROLLS was of opinion,
that the Master had come to a proper conclusion,

THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. HARVEY.

Mr. BETHELL appeared on this petition, and the only
point in the case was this :--A testatrix bad left the residue
of her property, after the Nywent of all her legacies, just
debts, &c., &c., to be divided into burns of 100/. e4ali, to

be niven to different charitable institutions, so far as it
wou'ld go. The matter had been referred to the Master, to
approve of a scheme. The Master had made his report,
by which he made the bequests payable to the treasurers of
each of those charities which he considered deserving, and
he considered that the Master's report should be confirmed.
His Honour said that the Court could only direct the
bequests to be paid in the way specified. Consequently he
should confirm the Master's report.
