bic citizen, and leaves a wife and two
children.

There is, OF course, evidence before the Court OF
the value 10 the holders of the guarantee thus
made by the defendants that the mortgage bonds
should net ninety cents the dollar; the defendants
would, by the terms of the agreement, have make
an Important Of money; it might be
an Insignificant amount, at all. As
Directors they under obligation TO make the
guarantee, and for making it they had right stipu
ate ior compensation mutually satisfactory to the
parties Interested With that exception of the guaran
tee most not ALL of the obligations assumed in the
agreement would devolve upon them in their charac
ter as Directors and Trustees of the stockholders

bonds were honestly, faithfully and economically APP
piled to the purposes of the corporation, and
teress of the stockholders carefully guarded. Dre-
tors of corporation organized for purpose of max
Ing money are not usually entitled to compensation
for their ordinary services.
"1f to be compensated, however, the pay should be-
reasonably proporoned TO the services rendered and
