386 COOMBS v. JORDAN.
After which Edmund Key, by Ms petition, stated, that he was
the guardian of the infant defendants Richard and Ann; and there-
fore prayedf that the surplus of the proceeds of the sale of their
ancestor's real estate, which had descended to them, and had been
sold, might be ordered to be paid to him to be invested for their
benefit, &c. A similar application was also made by a letter of
the 20th of May, 1816, from the said Key, addressed to the Chan-
cellor.
On the 11th of June, 1816, the auditor reported that he had re-
stated the claims of the creditors, amounting to $2,762 24, to pay
which, the sum brought in by the trustee was not sufficient, by
$124 30; which report was, by an order of the same day, con-
firmed. And the auditor also reported, that he had stated two
additional claims, that of James Cook as No. 22, and that of
Henry H. Chapman as No, 23; which were afterwards allowed;
so that it would in fact require the sum of $377 21, to be brought
in by the trustee to satisfy all the claims of creditors thus approved
and passed.
After which the auditor was requested by the Chancellor to
state the balance due to Ann Jordan; and whatever might be ne-
cessary to forward a settlement. In answer to which the auditor
stated, that there was no paper from which he could ascertain how
much was due from the trustee, or the purchaser; and therefore
he could not say how much was due to each of the deceased's
heirs. But the trustee representing that he had in hand f 1,500,
he might pay into court $377 21, in satisfaction of the claims un-
provided for, and divide $1,122 79, the residue, between Ann
and Richard Jordan, the only children and heirs of the deceased.
17th November, 1818.—KILTY, Chancellor.—The trustee is au-
thorized and directed to pay to the register the sum of $377 21, to
be deposited in the usual manner; and of the remaining sum of
$1,122 79, to pay to the guardian of Richard Jordan $561 39 1/2;
and the like sum to the guardian of Ann Jordan, or to herself if of
age. _____________
On the 21st of February, 1822, the auditor reported, that he had
stated the claim of Victoria Vincendiere as No. 24, lately exhibited
against the estate of the intestate Jordan, to pay which the pro-
ceeds were ample; but that the money paid into court had been
fully applied.
