1Opinion of the Court

Taxis, P. J.,

This is a petition for the review of an adjudication confirmed absolutely on June 25, 1961. The account audited was that of Eliza C. Mathers, testamentary trustee and widow of decedent, as stated by her executor, Girard Trust Corn Exchange Bank (now Girard Trust Bank). In the adjudication, inter alia, there was awarded to accountant the sum of $24,000 “. . . as a reserve for payment of possible taxes and other costs.” A substantial portion of this sum, together with some income, remains undistributed, and the instant petition seeks review and redistribution as to that fund.
