Otis, Justice
(concurring specially).
I concur in the opinion of Mr. Justice Sheran. However, I do not believe we can ignore the manifest impropriety of the court’s appointing a trustee who has such an obvious conflict of interest as plaintiff in this case.
Here, as trustee for two other beneficiaries, it was clearly his duty to sue both drivers. Since in the instant case plaintiff was himself one of the *210drivers, he is in the indefensible position of having to pass judgment on his own liability which is a decision he can hardly make with any degree of objectivity.
