1Opinion of the Court
Frankenthaler, S.
Objections have been raised to the action of the executor in crediting the sum of $9,802.73 against the legacy given respondent. A further objection has been raised to the crediting of $960.75, representing the cost of certain jewelry delivered to objeetant after testator’s death. To sustain these deductions, the accountant contends that the principal sum represents advances made by decedent to the objeetant in anticipation of her legacy and that the postmortem delivery of the jewelry was improper since no valid gift thereof had been effected during testator’s lifetime.
