1Opinion of the Court

NO person can institute a suit in the Probate Court on behalf of infants, unless he is their guardian generally or ad litem. If the appointment has been made in another state, the guardian must file a copy of his appointment, and give bond and surety for the faithful discharge of his duty, before his authority can be recognized in our Courts. R. Code, 1831, pp. 167, 170. — R. Stat. 1838, pp. 188, 191.
