CONNER VS. OGLE. 441 On the same day that the last sale was ratified, Anne Ogle filed her petition praying that a certain mortgage debt, being a lien on part of the premises sold, should be paid. The original mortgage was exhibited with the petition, as appears from the Chancellor's order on it, though not referred to in the petition, and appearing to have been filed on the 23d. On the same day (22d November) the Chancellor ordered the trustee to pay to the petitioner the sum of £10,890 16s. 4d.— $28,988 81— by assignment of bonds or in money, or both, which was paid, per receipt on the mortgage, on the 23d. The residue, deducting commissions, was all paid into court in pursuance of the Chancellor's order of December 1st, 1815. On the 25th of January, 1816, Mrs. Bevans files her petition in the Chancery Court, stating that the balance of the proceeds of the real estate, after the payment of debts, was about $24,562, and prays that so much of the said sum may be vested in the hands of a trustee and appropriated under the Chancellor's direction, the clear annual profits of which shall suffice for a suitable maintenance to your petitioner. To this B. Ogle an- nexed an answer, admitting the facts and consenting to the ap- propriation. On the same day, the Chancellor passed an order appropriating so much as would annually produce the sum of $580—to be invested by the trustee; but the trustee, in writ- ing, without date, declining to act as trustee relative to the ap- propriation made to Mrs. Bevans, and praying the Chancellor to appoint some other person, he, on the 28th of February, 1816, appointed John Addison, of Prince George's county, trustee, in the place of the said Benjamin Ogle, under the said order; and on the 29th, directed a check to be drawn in favor of Ad- dison for the money in bank, he applying so much as may be necessary to the annuity to Mrs. Bevan, now Mrs. Conner, and the rest as guardian to the infants. The whole amount was paid. over accordingly to Addison, and thus was the whole amount of the real estate disposed of. Nothing further was done in Chancery in reference to the real estate until 1835, except the filing on the 4th of March, 1819, a petition (or memorial, as he calls it,) by B. Ogle as VOL. iv—37 |
