121 Misc. 54 | N.Y. Sur. Ct. | 1923
In this accounting proceeding a question has arisen as to the validity of the claims of two creditors against the estate. The administrator c. t. a. contends that these claims are barred by the Statute of Limitations. The first claim is based upon a loan which I find was made by Nicholas S. Wood to the decedent on the 30th day of June, 1896. The decedent died on December 12, 1896, and by his will George H. Hart was appointed executor and named as sole legatee. The estate is a small one and amounts approximately to $1,800. A verified notice of claim was filed with the executor on December 31, 1896. The executor died on July 28,
Under the special circumstances and in view of the equities of the creditors here, the claims of Nicholas S. Wood and of the National Printing and Engraving Company and its allied companies are allowed with interest. Submit decree accordingly.
Decreed accordingly.
