The bond given by John N. Givens, as administrator of David Smith, deceased, late of Warren county, on the granting of an order of the orphans court authorizing him to sell land of his intestate to pay debts, was, by direction of the ordinary, put in suit, and judgment was recovered thereon for the amount of the penalty, $30,000. Application is now made for the assessment of the damages. The questions presented are, whether the administrator de bonis non is entitled to receive the money which may be collected under the judgment; whether there should be a deduction from the balance adjudged by the orphans court, on final account, to be due from Givens, of the amount of the proceeds of the sale of a tract of land which, it is alleged he sold without the order of the orphans court, and carried the proceeds into his account; and also of the amount of certain personal property of Smith’s estate, with which the orphans court surcharged his final account.

As to the first question: It is enough to say that the object of the present application is merely to ascertain how much should be raised on the judgment, which is in favor of the ordinary, and therefore the inquiry as to whether the money, when collected, should be paid over to the administrator de bonis non to be administered, is not involved.

As to the second question: It is clear that the administrator aud his sureties are bound to answer only for the administration of the proceeds of the sale of land sold by the former, pursuant to the order of the orphans court. The administrator had a right to sell only such land, and could give no title to any other. It appears by the record that the orphans court gave him’ authority to sell the homestead farm, and it is alleged that he sold (for the price of $405.50) a tract of woodland, some miles distant from that property. The order for sale obviously did not *193extend to that tract, and on establishing the fact that the account included the proceeds of that sale, the proper deduction would be made. There should be no deduction in respect to the surcharges of the administrator’s account with personal property not legally accounted for. It was the duty of the administrator to apply the personal property to the payment of the debts before applying the proceeds of the real estate. It was one of the terms of the condition of his bond, that he would well and truly administer the money arising from the sale of the real estate, and he could not do so without applying the personal estate to the payment of the debts before application of the proceeds of the real estate thereto, there having been more than enough.of both together to pay the debts. His failure to apply the personal estate to the payment of the debts before applying the proceeds of the real, therefore, is no defence. There will be an order assessing the damages at the amount due according to the account in the orphans • court, with interest, unless the before-mentioned allegations, with reference to the unauthorized sale of land, shall be established, in which case the proper deduction will be made in that behalf.
