ants.
Attorney J. 7 De Bolt. representing
the latter. asked that plaintiffs COM
plant filed herein and the summons
issued thereon and returned be dis
missed and quashed and held for
naught, upon the ground that 1t is not
shown nor does it appear therefrom
or thereby that this court has acquired
Jurisdiction OF the defendant or of the
subject matter of said action"
In the hearing it was brought out
that q policeman had served complaint
and summons. Attorney De Bolt
maintained that q policeman was not
an officer OF the court, and therefore
his serving OF the papers was void.
The court ruled in favor of De Bolt,
and the prayer OF the defendant was
granted.
On motion of plaintiffs attorney in
the case Of d. Akawa VS.. J. X Paele
the appeal was dismissed.
H. A. Bigelow, appointed by Judge
Humphreys Master to examine the hc-
counts OF J. NJ. Monsarrat, guardian
81 w
his report After making note OF the
various schedules the Master says:
The real property covered by this in
yentory consists OF the real estate ie-
yised 10 Marion c. Dowsett Jointly with
three other sisters by her mother, An
ME C. Dowsett, by will dated April II,
1887. | have compared the real estate
as set forth in the inventory with the
real estate as devised by the will, and
find the two to correspond. The fact
that while in most of the property tie
ward is credited with merely q one
fourth interest, she is credited with
one-third interest in the Dowsett home
stead is explained by the fact that
Elizabeth J. Dowsett, one OF the oTigi-
nal four joint tenants, conveyed her N
terest in the homestead TO her three
sisters, including Marion C. Dowsett, by
deed, April IL, 1898.
In the inventory of personal prop
erty. the guardian charges himself,
amongst other things, with $50 shares
OF the capital stock of the Dowsett Co.,
Ltd, OF the par value of 500 each,
and 100 bonds of the Dowsett Co, Ltd,
9 SI haa ~
interest at the rate OF 3 per cent per
annum,' and to each of these the
guardian adds the statement that they
have not been delivered by the COM
pany.
The Master finds that upon all mat
tiers of bookkeeping the guardians ac-
counts are entirely correct.
