638 ADDISON v. BOWIE.
he had so directed to be kept together for the support of the family,
should be distributed when his son Walter came of age; and that
after that, his wife and children should each be supported exclu-
sively from what he had given to each. The charge upon the
rents and profits of the realty derived from the testator Baruck,
was then to cease, together with the similar charge upon the
negroes, derived from the same testator. And the whole of the
net profits of the property which had, until that time, been kept
together, and which, after the payment of his debts, should then
remain, are directed to be equally divided among his children,
Eliza, Walter, Kitty and Richard. This latter bequest of the
residuum of the rents and profits is sufficiently clear.
Whereupon it is Ordered, that a copy of the following notifica-
tion be published in one newspaper published in the city of Anna-
polis, and in one newspaper published in the city of Washington,
once a week for three successive weeks, before the first day of
September next.

of Prince George's County, be, and they are hereby notified and
required, to file the vouchers of their claims in the Chancery office,

notification, and the expiration of the time allowed to the said cre-
ditors to file the vouchers of their claims, this case be, and the
same is hereby referred to the auditor, with directions to state an
account accordingly. And the report of the auditor, and the ex-
ceptions thereto, heretofore filed, so far as the same are at variance
with any thing herein contained, are hereby overruled.
As required by this order, notice was given to the creditors of
the testator William, to file the vouchers of their claims. After
which, the case was taken up by the auditor, and sundry state-
ments made and reported. Upon all which, on the petition, and
with the consent of all parties, the case was referred to arbitra-
tion; in pursuance of which, the arbitrators made and returned an
award, by which the case was finally closed.
