152        DIRECTIONS for GUARDIANS.

    " And if they find that orphans are not maintained
    " and educated according to their estates,
    " or apprentices neglected to be taught their
    " trades, upon pretence that the last year is
    " enough to learn their trade, that they remove
    " them to other guardians and masters.
    " And in case the jury find that any apprentice
    " is not taught his trade, but put to other
    " labour as aforesaid, the county court shall
    " condemn the master of such apprentice to
    " make the apprentice such satisfaction, as in
    " justice his year of labour, or other work,
    " shall deserve."
 

    Guardians are also liable to give new and
better security; whether such guardian be chosen
by the orphan, or appointed by the court,
1752. chap. 3.
 
    For other matters, any ways relating to guardians,
see acts of assembly, 1715. chap. 39.
1729. chap. 24. 1852. chap. 3. and 1758. chap.

    A person who enters wrongfully into the
land of an infant, may be charged as a trespasser,
and thus become liable to make reparation
in damages; or he may be charged as
guardian, or trustee, and called to account for
the profits.  1 Vern. 295.--2 Vern. 224.
