294 CONTEE v. DAWSON.

pleadings and proofs in the case, and such other proof in relation
to these points as the parties may lay before him.

In the event of the death of either or both of the now unmarried
infant daughters before they become entitled to take, her or their
share or shares will devolve upon the other sisters, if living, or,
upon the legal representatives of those who may be then dead; on
which event it may become necessary to bring the new parties and
interests before the court by a supplemental bill, or some other cor-
rect course of proceeding.

Whereupon it is Ordered, that this case be and the same is
hereby referred to the auditor, with directions to state an account
accordingly from the pleadings and proofs now in the case, and
such other proofs as the parties may lay before him. And each
party is hereby allowed to take testimony in relation to the said
matter of account before any justice of the peace; or before the
commissioners in the city of Baltimore, on giving three days notice
as usual. Provided that the said testimony be taken and filed in
the chancery office on or before the fifteenth day of June next.

In obedience to this order the auditor made a report as of the
19th of September, 1829, in which he says, that he had examined
the proceedings, and from them had stated an account A between
the defendant Eleanor Dawson as executrix of William Dawson,
deceased, and the children of Margaret R. Clerklee, deceased, in
which the proceeds of sale of the stock, $9,202 94, which was
originally purchased with the principal legacy bequeathed by Ann
Russell, deceased, in trust for said children, as the said proceeds
are ascertained by the deposition of Frederick Dawson, are appor-
tioned agreeably to the said order.

From this account A, it appears, that there is due to the com-
plainants Edmund H. Contee, and Eleanor Russell his wife, the
sum of $2,636 38; with further interest on the sum of $1,713 79,
part thereof, from this date until paid. To Josias Hawkins, and
Caroline Ashton his wife, the sum of $2,741 23, with further inte-
rest on the sum of $1,993 14, part thereof, from this date until
paid. To Elizabeth Clerklee, the sum of $258O3, with further
interest on the sum of $2,037 63, part thereof, from this date
until paid. To Margaret Clerklee, who has lately attained her
full age, the sum of $2,836 24, with further interest on the sum
of $2,594 91, part thereof, from this date until paid. And to
Sarah Emily Clerklee, payable on her arrival at age or marriage,
