1Opinion of the Court

Shoyer, J.,

The two brothers and three sisters, being all the children of Santa Zappardino, decedent, have been feuding among themselves and have taken sides concerning the distribution of her estate. One son, Joseph, has excepted to the denial of his claim for the family exemption. The other son, William, to whom letters of administration were granted by the Register of Wills, excepts to the action of the learned auditing judge in reducing the credit claimed in the account for funeral expenses from $1,449 to $1,-200, and then surcharging him as accountant for the difference of $249.
