ART. 16.] CHANCERY. 85

71. If any infant, or person non compos mentis, be entitled to
any real or personal property in this State, or any interest or
estate therein, and the same shall be liable to any mortgage,
trust, lien, or in any way charged with the payment of money,
the court shall have the same power to decree in such case as if
such infant were of full age, or such non compos mentis of sound
mind.

72. Where an infant, or person non compos mentis, is entitled
to any real or personal property in this State bound by any con-
tract, or where an infant or a non compos mentis claims any
right in such property under any contract, the court, in either
case, shall have the same power to decree the execution of such
contract, or to pass any just and proper decree that the court
would have if all the parties were of full age and sound mind;
Provided, that in all decrees for specific performance of a con-
tract against an infant, such infant may, at any time within six
months after he arrives at full age, have' review of such decree;
and if such infant dies under age, his heir or proper represent-
ative may have a review of such decree either within six months
after the death of such infant, or within six months after such
heir or representative attains full age.

sound mind, who may be interested, decree the sale of the real
estate of such infant or person non compos mentis, to save the
personal.

court, on being satisfied that such surety has suffered, or is likely
to suffer loss or damage by reason of his suretyship, may appoint
a trustee to complete his collections for the benefit of those con-
cerned, and the court shall compel such sheriff, deputy sheriff or
collector, or his representatives, to answer such bill or petition
under oath, and disclose the state of his collection.

75. If on the filing of a bill or petition under the preceding
section, or at any other period in the cause, it shall be made
appear to the court, by affidavit, that an injunction is necessary
to the security of the complainant, the court may issue such
injunction, and may appoint a receiver to take charge of the
