DEAKINS' CASE.
TRUSTEE TO SELL PROPERTY FOR PAYMENT OF DEBTS.—CHANCERY PRACTICE.

The proceedings of a trustee appointed, under the Act of Assembly, to dis-
pose of property directed by a will to be sold for the payment of debts
or other purposes, may be limited and controlled.

In appointing such a trustee, the Court does not confer upon him an authority
more extensive than that specified in the will.

An order, directing a trustee to suspend further proceedings, operates as an
injunction.

Where certain proceedings, apparently distinct, relate to the same estate,
and have been linked together by an order, they may be thenceforward
proceeded in as one suit.
