65 A. 386 | N.H. | 1906
From the reported facts and the briefs of counsel it appears that the ground of the appeal is, that there is error of law in the decree of the probate court denying the plaintiff's petition, so far as it asks for authority to transfer to the defendant the notes of the Exeter Manufacturing Company. By the decree of May 6, it was determined that George E. Kent's estate was chargeable upon the settlement of his guardianship account with the notes in question in specie, and not for their value represented in money. Thereupon the plaintiff held the notes as specific property belonging to the wards. From this decree no appeal was prosecuted. The jurisdiction of the probate court in that matter is unquestioned. The decree bound the wards as well as the plaintiff. It was a final adjudication between parties who, it must be presumed, were properly before the court, upon a matter within the court's jurisdiction. Simmons v. Goodell,
Case discharged.
All concurred. *76
