670 TESTAMENTARY LAW. [ART. 93.

235. The court may, whenever two summonses shall be regu-
larly returned "non est" by the sheriff, or other officer of the
county where the party last resided, issue an attachment against
his lands and tenements, goods and chattels, and upon return
thereof, with a schedule of the property annexed, may by order
or commission under seal, authorize some person or persons to
take into his or their custody the property contained in such
schedule, or any part thereof, and to receive the profits thereof,
to be- accounted for until the party summoned shall appear and
obey the order of the court, or until further order; and the
sheriff or other officer shall deliver the property accordingly.
And the person or persons to whom the same shall be committed,
shall, before receiving the same, give bond with security in such
penalty as the court shall direct, for rendering a true account of
such property and the profits, and for the delivery of the same
according to the order of the court, deducting such allowance for
loss, and such commission, not exceeding five per cent., as the
court shall allow; and such bond shall be recorded, and be in all
respects on a footing with an administration bond.

236. They may, whenever the purpose for which the property
was sequestered is answered, order the same and the profits
thereof, deducting for loss and commission as aforesaid, to be
delivered to the party or to his heirs, devisees, or legal repre-
sentatives, upon their respective applications, and satisfying the
court of the parties' right in case the purposes for which the
attachment was issued cannot be answered.

237. The Orphans' Courts may in their discretion, and when-
ever to them it shall seem proper, either ex officio or upon
application, order any administrator to whom they may have
granted administration, or any guardian whom they may have
appointed, or whose bond they may have approved, to bring
into court, or place in bank, or invest in bank or other incor-
porated stock, or any other good security, any money or funds
received by such administrator or guardian; and the court shall
direct the manner and form in which such money or funds shall
be placed in bank or invested; and the same shall at all times be
subject to the order and control of the court, and if the adminis-
trator or guardian shall not, within a reasonable time to be fixed
by the court, comply with the order, his administration or
guardianship may be revoked.
