After this trustee had given bond as required, the former trustee
returned a further account shewing a balance due him of $25.
And this trustee filed an account in which he charged himself with
an amount of rents and profits received more than equal to the
maintenance of the lunatic. This trustee by a letter addressed to
the Chancellor declined to act any longer, and recommended
Charles Nabb as his successor.
19th January, 1824.—JOHNSON, Chancellor.— Ordered, that
Charles Nabb, of Talbot county, be and he is hereby appointed
trustee in the place of George W. Nabb, resigned. The trustee
now appointed to give a bond with surety as was done by the
last trustee.
Charles Nabb declined the acceptance of the trust, and recom-
mended Thomas M. Cooper, the nearest of kin to the lunatic, as a
suitable person to be appointed.
22d May, 1823.—JOHNSON, Chancellor.—Ordered, that Thomas
M. Cooper be and he is hereby appointed trustee in place of Charles
Nabb, resigned. The trustee at this time appointed to give bond
for the performance of the trust as before directed to be given by
the former trustee.
It does not appear, that the trustee Cooper, ever gave bond as re-
quired. The former trustee George W. Nabb filed his account from
which it appeared, that there was a balance of $10 due to him.
Charles Morgan, the lunatic, by his petition, filed on the 17th
of June, 1829, complained of the mismanagement of the trustee
Cooper, and of his not having provided him with a comfortable
subsistence from the proceeds of his estate, which was amply suf-
ficient for that purpose; and alleged, that although he had been
officially found a lunatic some time past; yet he could produce
certificates of many respectable persons, who now thought other-
wise. Whereupon he prayed, that he might be either restored to
the full possession and enjoyment of his property; or that another
trustee might be appointed in place of Cooper, &c. With this
petition there were a number of certificates and letters filed, from
respectable citizens of Talbot county, expressing various, different,
and opposite opinions as to the then mental condition of Charles
Morgan,
