ton for arbitration filed in the Court OF

are as follows, to-wit: The last will and
te lament of William y: Dixon. deceased.
was admitted to probate in said court on
the 18th Of January. lSJb; and on the
same day Samuel Dixon, who was ar-
pointed executor by the viii, qualified as
such. and took out letters testsmcnJary.
Hy the will, legacy of FIVE hundred dol
lars was given to Caroline Dixon, tcstator's
sister Of the halE-blood. and the residue
OF the estate was bclucathed to Willis II.
Dixon, upon condition that he survived
the tcstator. Willis II. died, never having
been married, before the testator, leaving
neither wife. child. or lincal descendant.
but having two brothers and sister, to-
Wit: lllman and Joseph Dixon, and Mr..
6rcenbury. who were entitled as distribu-
tees to the undivided portion oil his es-
tate. The estate consisted OF two slaves,

such a purchaser, though To the prejudice
Of the e-sfH Y.f troR, the purchaser will
not be disturbed in his title at the in
stance Of the ccstla 9te tr,lst-and this Is
settled doctrine.
Il is also said that this rule in behalf Of
5.aa Pile purchasers, applies ONLY to real
estate. But it Is alp applicable tEpur-
chascrs.of chattcls. and has been -o held
hv this court i'm the cases above cited.
As to the sutliciency of the averncnt-
i'm the answer TO entile Wyse 10 the beuo-
fiji of the defence as a t9aa rlc purchaser.
they appear 10 be full and ndcomprehcn-ive.
The answer shows the payment Of the
purchase money in fun, and denies that
he had any notice, either in act or I'm
law. Of the trust ed, or that tua COM
r.Ia;.4-.s- -s.l---. ..~-~~r1 hal any III
terest in, or claim to tie slaves :avofring
that he purchased them from Steiulcin in
good faith for n valuable consideration
without notice of the claim or interest Of
any person in conflict with the absolute
ownership Of them by Nathaniel w. Dam
bridge. Jr This appears to be full and oz-
pGcit and Is sufficient to admit the de
fence.
This view Of the case disposes Of il. and
renders il unnecessary to consider the de
fence Of the statute of limitations.
The decree must be reversed and the
bill dismissed. HANDY.
