Clara S. Barclay, as Trustee under the Last Will and Testament of William O. Barclay, Deceased, Appellant, v. Reginald G. Barclay, Respondent.
Appeal from an order of the Supreme Court, entered in the New York county clerk’s office on the 13th day of May, 1915, denying a motion for discovery and inspection of books and papers.

Opinion:
Per Curiam:
We are of the opinion that, in view of plaintiff's special property in the subject-matter of this litigation, she is entitled to an examination of defendant's books of account and that she is not called upon to accept the defendant's conclusion as to the results which such an examination would disclose. The order should be so drawn as to interfere as little as possible with the conduct of the business, and to that end will be settled on notice. The order appealed from is reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion granted. Present—Ingraham, P. J., McLaughlin, Laughlin, Clarke and Scott, JJ. Order reversed, with ten dollars costs and disbursements, and motion granted. Order to be settled on notice. _
