| from the estate of Elah Beach, deceased.
| An appeal from the iudg-
ment of the common pleas division
by which Il. Hortense Bullock was al
lowed $780, and George N. Bullock sl279.-
81, was heard Monday before the appellate
division. The appeal was based on the
allegations that Elah Beach had paid i'm
| full all debts owed him to George
| n. Bullock and that the claim made by
Il. Hortense Bullock for services as nurse
during Mr.. Beach's long illness was ex-
orbitant.
The Bullocks made no charges upon Mr..
Beach for the reason that several
years before his death he made
will bequeathing all his property to them
at death. After he died claims were made
against the estate by other parties and the
Bullocks, in order to save themselves, put
in claim of their own.
About a VIII.
Last October Frank X. Smith and wife
and George e. Martin, trustee,
filed with the supreme court a
request for an opinion concern
ing the construction of the will of Beta
min White in which Is involved the prop
erty known as the M. r. Gardner farm
dates back to 1876. The two
trustees appointed in the will declined to
serve and the question of who possesses the
legal title to the land arose. After re-
viewing the case the court gives this
opinion:
AS the two trustees originally ap-
pointed in the will OF Ben
jamin White, deceased, declined
the trust, the legal title to the land men
toned is vested in his heirs, to wit, his
daughters, Anna 7. White and Julia f.
Thompson. In the absence OF any
conveyance by them to George f.. Martin,
the trustee appointed by the municipal
court, we are OF the opinion that he had
no title to the land at the time OF his con-
veyance to the petitioner, Annie G. Smith.
