New York Surrogate's Court

On settlement of the accounts of the executor of Harriet 0. Shipman, deceased.

1Opinion of the Court

Ransom, S.

This matter was on the calendar on October 18, 1888, for the purpose of hearing argument upon the exceptions interposed by the special guardian to the account of the executor. One of the objections raised was to the payment by the executor of a certain claim of a physician for services rendered to the deceased in her last illness. The surrogate directed that testimony be taken before an assistant, as to an alleged contractual relation between the deceased and the physician. An order of reference was entered upon that direction, and the whole matter now comes up for determination.
