1Opinion of the CourtLurton, J.

The complainants are the distributees of James Kerley, who died intestate in 1859. They charge that Elisha Oglesby qualified as administrator upon his estate in July, 1859, and that he filed an inventory of the effects of the decedent and a report of sales of personalty during the year following, and that in 1869 he made a partial settlement in the County Court, but that he subsequently died without completing the administration by a final settlement. This bill is filed for the purpose of surcharging and falsifying the settlement made, and to recover their several distributive shares.
