1Opinion of the Court

START, O. J.

The respondents presented a claim in the probate court of the county of St. Louis against the estate of M. B. Harrison, deceased. The claim was allowed in part, and the executrix appealed from the order allowing the claim to the district court, where, upon pleadings framed, the cause was tried by the court without a jury. The trial court made findings of fact, and as a conclusion of law directed judgment in favor of the respondents against the estate of Harrison for the sum of $27,629.88. The executrix appealed from an order denying her motion for a new trial.
