Devin, J.
The judgment is affirmed on authority of Hood, Comr., v. North Carolina Bank and Trust Company and Margaret E. Brand, ante, 367.
The statute (C. S., 219 [c]), provides that the estate and funds in the hands of executors, administrators, guardians, and trustees shall he subject to the liability of stockholders prescribed by C. S., 219 (a).
Nor can the alleged negligence of the hank be set up as a counterclaim or set-off against the stockholders’ liability. In re Trust Co., 197 N. C., 613.
Affirmed.
