106 Ky. 385 | Ky. Ct. App. | 1899
delivered the opinion of the court.
Upon the death of an infant whose estate consists solely of the proceeds of the sale of personal property, and rent of the homestead which had been set apart for the joint support of the deceased infant and her brother, also an infant, the said proceeds and rent go to the surviving brother, and not to the administrator, of the deceased infant. Under our statute, the same property is set apart for the support of a single infant as is set apart for the
Appellant, as guardian of the surviving infant, therefore, and not the appellee, as administrator of the deceased infant, is entitled to the fund in contest herein.
Judgment reversed, to the end that it may be so adjudged.
