APPOINTMENT WAS LEGAL,
Supreme Court Decides Contest For
Administrators.

Olympia.-The supreme court has
affirmed the Skagit county case of
Henry Mclean, appellant, VS.. Floyd
H. Roller, respondent. The appeal
was from an order of the superior
court appointing Roller and refusing
to appoint Mclean, administrator of
the estate Of Emma Roller deceased
Mrs. Roller died intestate May 3,
1901, and on May Is, 1902, Floyd Rol-
Ter, her son, applied for letters of ad-
ministration. On May II Mclean ap-
piled for letters Of application by
fling a request for his appointment
signed by Edward Roller, husband of
the deceased woman, which request
was dated November 25, 1901. Ed
ward Roller was under conviction Of
a felony and was ineligible therefore
to act as administrator. The supreme
court holds that while he was ineli-
gible to act as administrator, his re-
quest for the appointment of Mclean
should have been granted if it had
been presented in time, but the law
provides that anyone having right
to letters Of administration who does
not present his claims until after for
ty days from the death of the deceas-
ed person, valves his right to be-
come administrator of the estate.
Mclean having failed to act until af-
ter the expiration Of forty days, the
court had it within his discretion to
appoint any suitable and qualified per
son. The appointment of either Floyd
Roller or Mclean would have been
proper, and no error having been com
mitted, the judgment is affirmed and
Roller remains the administrator.
