MORGAN'S CASE.
And it is further Ordered, that the said Thomas M. Cooper de-
liver up and transfer all the property, debts, rights, and effects,
which may be in his posession or under his control of the said
Charles Morgan, unto the said trustee Richard Dardin; and also
render unto this court a true and full account, on oath, of all his
proceedings concerning the said lunatic and his estate.
And it is further Ordered, that the said trustee Richard Dardin,
as soon as may be after he has given bond, make out and return to
this court, a full and complete inventory, on oath, of the estate,
debts, rights, and effects, of the said lunatic which may have come
to his hands, and so far as he can ascertain the same.
And it is further Ordered, that the said lunatic, or any one on his
behalf, may at any time, on petition to this court, have the said
Morgan discharged from its further custody upon such affidavits as
he may think proper to file, taken before any justice of the peace,
and made by any physician, or other respectable person, giving
such a particular description and opinion of the mental condition of
the said Morgan as may enable the Chancellor to judge of his
ability and capacity to manage his own affairs.
And it is further Ordered, that the said trustee immediately make
out and deliver to the said Charles Morgan a full and exact copy
of this order, to the end, that he may be apprised, so far as he thus
can be, of the disposition the court has made of himself, and of his
estate; and of its willingness to hear and maturely to deliberate
upon any application he may hereafter make to it.
The trustee Dardin gave bond as required; and, in a few months
after, died; upon which Jesse Scott, by his petition, stated the fact,
and prayed, that he might be appointed trustee to the lunatic.
29th December, 1829.—BLAND, Chancellor.— Ordered, that Jesse
Scott be and he is hereby appointed trustee of the person and es-
tate of Charles Morgan, a lunatic, in the place of Richard Dardin,
deceased, as prayed; but before he acts as such he shall give bond
as required by the order of the 18th of June last. And it is further
Ordered, that the said Jesse Scott be and is hereby invested with
all the authority conferred by that order, and is required to comply
with all the directions therein contained.
This trustee gave bond as required, and made a report of his
receipts and disbursements of the rents and profits of the lunatic's
estate. And afterwards by his petition, filed on the 8th of April,
