Williams v. Willams's
Williams v. Willams's
Opinion of the Court
Where the testator directed certain legacies to be paid by his executors, and devised certain lands
Held, that the executors were not entitled to an order for the sale of the premises, to pay a per cent, on the legacies. In such case the executors are not entitled to a per cent. Whether, however, seeing to the discharge of the legacies by the legatees, the executors performed extraordinary services not in the common course of duty, will be a matter for the consideration of the probate court on settlement.
Judgment below reversed and cause remanded.
