2086 TESTAMENTARY LAW, [ART. 93
The orphans' court has power to appraise only under this section and
section 206, and under article 81, section 128. Hence, where a will directs
an appraisement and that certain property be taken at such appraise-
ment, but fails to name the appraisers, equity alone can name them. Magin
v. Niner, 110 Md. 302.
The appraisement is only prima facie evidence against the guardian.
