In • 1872, Mrs. Terry was appointed guardian of her niece, Ida Jacobia. Shortly after her appointment she received $1,200, the property of her ward. Mrs. Terry took her niece into her family, and supported and cared for her until she was married, in 1880. She treated her as one of her own children, and no question is raised but that she properly’performed her duty towards her ward. She filed no guardian’s account until some time after her ward’s marriage, but this delay she seems' to have satisfactorily explained. Upon the hearing of her account in the probate court,
Both parties appeal. Counsel for the ward insists that-the guardian was entitled to no credit for the board of her ward. Counsel for the guardian insists that the-court erred in disallowing board for the year 1872; in allowing interest; in not allowing her to turn back a house and lot, in which she had invested some of her ward’s money; and in not allowing credit for $375 paid by the guardian to the ward’s husband.
We see no reason for disturbing the judgment of the-court. The guardian was clearly entitled to some compensation for the support and maintenance of her ward, and the amount allowed was certainly reasonable.
The guardian was chargeable with interest on the-money in her hands.
As to the money paid the husband, there was a conflict of evidence as to whether it was paid at the request of the wife. The finding of the judge upon this point, therefore, is conclusive.
The judgment is affirmed, without costs to either party.
