408 HIGH COURT OF CHANCERY.

THE CHANCELLOR:

This case presents questions of importance and difficulty.
By the will of Talbot Jones, who died in the year 1834, there
was bequeathed to the testator's two sons, Samuel Jones and
Andrew D. Jones, and the survivor of them, a portion of his
estate, in trust, for the use and benefit of his daughter, Emily
Jane Jones, now Mrs. Albert, and one of the complainants, dur-
ing her natural life; to the end that she, during that period, be
permitted to have and enjoy the same, and the income and
profits thereof, to her own use and benefit, and without being
subject to the control, power, or disposal of any husband she
might thereafter have, or in any manner liable for the payment
of his debts; and for the income thereof, her receipts, whether
sole or covert, are made sufficient discharges; and by the will,
the parties named as trustees are made executors.

Afterwards, upon a bill filed by certain of the parties in in-
terest, against the said executors and trustees, for the purpose
of obtaining the direction and aid of the court, in the execution
of the trust, and for other purposes, a decree passed on the 6th
of November, 1841, by which it was, among other things, ad-
judged, that said Samuel and Andrew D. Jones, as trustees un-
der said will, should hold in trust, to and for the use of Emily
J. Albert, certain property therein mentioned; included in which
are several sums of the six per cent. stock debt of the city of
Baltimore, amounting together to $6,300.

It does not appear from the will of Talbot Jones, whether
any portion of the stock debt of the city of Baltimore was in-
cluded in the devise and bequest .for the use of his daughter,
the present Mrs. Albert, the property so devised, consisting of
other stocks which are enumerated; portions of his real estate
and the rest and residue thereof. But it does not appear that
on the 20th of November, 1841, Samuel Jones and Andrew D.
Jones, executors of Talbot Jones, transferred by endorsements
on the certificates to themselves, as trustees, three parcels of said
stock, amounting in the aggregate to the sum of $6,299 99;

and that the dividends upon this stock from the 1st of January,
1842, to the 1st of October, 1845, inclusive, were paid to Wil-
