Rowe's Estate
Superior Court of Pennsylvania
Rowe's Estate, 22 Pa. Super. 597 (1903)
1903 Pa. Super. LEXIS 273
Beaver, Morrison, Orlady, Porter, Smith
Rowe's Estate
Opinion of the Court
The distribution of the decedent’s estate, as made by the auditor and finally confirmed by the orphans’ court, is fully justified by the auditor’s report and the opinion of the court. The appellant was fully heard upon exceptions and the reasons for dismissing them are carefully stated by the court.
We see no occasion for discussing the reasons for or dissenting in any way from the conclusions reached. The distribution was properly made and the appellant has no good legal reason for her appeal from the final decree.
Decree affirmed and appeal dismissed at the cost of the appellant.
