PHILLIPS, District Judge.

L. P. Ratterman, as administrator of the estate of Wilhelmina W. Thompson, deceased, filed a bill in equity against Mrs. C. M. Lodge, wherein he prayed for a deeree adjudging certain promissory notes and mortgages in the possession of Mrs. Lodge to be the property of such estate, and for an order impounding such notes and mortgages pending a determination of the suit. The answer in effect set up that the notes and mortgages were the property of Mrs. Lodge by virtue of a gift inter vivos from Miss Thompson to Mrs. Lodge. The cause was referred to a master.
