Oliver Perry Hause in the whole estate of the tes
tator, does not and will not amount in value to
three thousand dollars, the sum advanced to him
by the testator in his lifetime; and that the sum
of five hundred dollars was invested by the said
Thomas F. TroxeIl, executor, for the said Oliver
pursuant to said will and that the share of the
said Benjamin Franklin Hause in the estate of
the testator is also less than the sum of three
thousand dollars advanced to him by the testator
in his lifetime. And the bill further states that
Maria Hause, the widow of the said testator, has
lately died, and the complainants allege that the
said lands, which were devised to her during her
life, cannot be divided without loss and injury to
the parties interested therein, and that sale
thereof is necessary for the purpose of partition
and division among the persons entitled to share
therein under the said will as therein provided.
And the bill prays that sale may be deereed of
all the lands devised in and by the last will Of
Peter Hause to his wife, Maria Hause, during her
life, and division decreed to be made of the
money arising from such sale among the parties
entitled thereto under the last will of the said
Peter Hause according to their respective rights
or in case it should appear to the court that the
said lands can be divided without loss or injury
to the parties interested, that then a partition
thereof may be decreed and for general relief
