In Part 1 of the Court of General Sessions ‘was commenced yesterday the trial of Andrew McLane, indicted for homicide in having killed Michael Harden on the 34 of November, 1877, @t the corner of Fourth avenue and Thirty- first street during a squabble over the merits of John Morrissey and Augustus Schell, the then rival candidates for State Senator. Assistant District Attorney Bell conducted the case-for the prosecution and Mr. Abe H. Hummel defended the prisoner. Daniel Wittpen, the first witness, testified that at the time of the row he“was proprietor of the saloon at the southeast corner of Thirty-first street and Fourth avenue, and that on the Saturday before the elec- tion of 1877 McLane, who was @ conductor of one of the Fourth avenue cars, got into a discussion with some fricnds about the candidates for Senate; that Harden interfered and said the prisoner could not vote, as he had-been on Blackwell’s Island ten out of the last oe | days; that McLane said, ‘I'll pull your eara,”’ when he interfered, andsthey both walked out- side, where a scufile ensued; that the prisoner re- turned and walked into the hall, and that shortly afterward Harden was found lying outside uncon- @ C. McEwen next deposed that he was pausing by and saw the deceased flung from the stoop the sidewalk, when his head struck the pavement ‘and he became immediately unconscious; he called an officer and the was taken away on & stretcher; the prisoner walked into the ssloon after throwing deceased down. On being cross-examined by Mr. Hummel Mr. McEwen stat that the stoop was only two. and a half inches high, and at some Place in front of the premises was level with the street, and also that the entire occurrence only lasted from five to ten seconds. This testimony was cor- roborated by a Mr. Bloomfield. Mrs. Mary Harden, the widow of the deceased, testified to the death of her husband, Deputy Coroner McWhinnie’s evidence ‘as to the death being caused by s violent fracture of the skull was read by consent, and Mr. Hummel then asked that the case be postponed until to-day to ena- ble the defence to proceed. This motion Judge Suth- erland granted, and, as usual, admonished the jury not to talk meanwhile to any one or discuss the case. 4 DIVORCE BULLETIN. On the 80th of last March Albert J. Wolf, who had » not yet reached his majority, clandestinely married dren. Ji Mr. Rufus F. Andrews. ‘Miss Joanna Masters, also a minor. Their honeymoon was of brief duration, and as soon as the roseate tint of this preliminary stage of their wedded life clapsed they tired of each other’s companionship and deter- mined to live separate. Recently, however, the young Benedict became suspicious that the partner of his life, whom at the altar he had vowed to love, cherish and protect, had proved faithless to her plighted th, and so suit was at once instituted. by him in Supreme Court, through his attorney, Mr. Andrew Blake, for divorce. This procedure Mrs. Wolf did not, as subsequent facts show, very much relish, and ber penton was Zech presented to Judge Dono- hue by Messrs. Howe & Hummel, her counsel, for the appointment of Mrs. Lizzie Masters, her mother, as her guardian for the purpose of defending the action brought by the husband. A suit for limited divorce, on leged drunkenness and cruelty, has been brought by Mrs. Mary E. Bingham against her husband, Richard E. Bingham. She states that they were married in 1860; that they have a child named Eddie, eight years old, and that he has uently came home drunk and threatened to kill them both. The case came up yes- terday before Judge Lawrence, in Supreme Court, Chambers, on a motion for alimony and counsel fee. The husband denies the charges against him and says that for the last eight years he has been employed on the United States supply ship Fern, which position he could not possibly hold if he was in the habit of getting drunk. In confirmation of his tem- | pip habits affidavits were submitted of officers of ship. He alleges that the trouble between them began in 1874, when he reproved heffor {po great in- timacy with one Henry White. Judge La’ took begga : . Mary Fox has brought suit for aed against the ground of al- her husband, Edward Fox, she charging him with oor H to her statément they were mar- don (England), in 1866, and have no chil- Lawrence yesterday referred the case to THE HOOLEY ‘ESTATE. The suit of Lucy Hooley and others against Abra- ham Giero and others, which has been so long before the court in ita various phases, reached a final deter- mination yesterday, before Judge Larremore, in the Court of Common Pleas, who signed a decree confirm- Ing the referee’s report. The defendants, Abraham Giero and Samuel G. Cutts, it will bé remembered, were executors and trustees under the will of the late Abraham Hooley, and it was charged by the plaintiff that the trust fands were mingled in the partnership business of the defendants to her damage. The de- cree, as signed by Judge Larremore, ia to the effect that there is now due from the defendants to the trust estate created by the will of Mr. Hooley the sum of $73,573 46, with interest from August 9, 1878; that such sum ae Shag since ta 1877, ® Hen upon t roperty which came into th@hands of Eugene t tynch, as receiver, and all the proceeds thereof; that James Wardlaw, as sub- sequent receiver, obtained a lien upon so much of the funds in the hands of Lynch as was not subject to the plaintiff's right; that the sccounts of Lynch as re- ceiver be approved, and that the whole amount in his hands be fixed at $43,586 83, besides some uncollected accounts; thats Andrew V. Stout be sppiinted sole trustee in place of Giero & Cutts; that his bond be spproved, and that he distribute the funds now in his hands and psy the same as follows:—To fait Pultz, referee, $450; to Eugene T. Lychh, former receiver, $2,124 92, being at the cent upon all sums realized porpg ed “en grape deemed alwo receiver, § in, Rives ntgomery, plain- tiff’s counsel, ‘gid 10; to the plaintiff, Luc; Pg 734 01, being interest on sums in the nds of ynch, and on deposit in the hands of various trust companies during the pendency of the action, to- gether with all interest accrued after August 9, 1878, and up to the time of the payments to the trustees; and to Stout, the trustee, the balance remaining in hig bands after such gene have been made. It is further provided it tho plaintiffs recover from defendants, Giero & Cutts, the amount found due as above mentioned, deducting the amount to which plaintiff's lien extends, and that Stout, as trustee, re- ceive all amounts Las af realized as trustee for the benefit of the plaintiff. UNPROFITABLE CUSTOMER. Aman entered the jewelry establishment of Taylor Bros., No. 676 Broadway, and expressed a desire to see some gold chains of a particular pattern, Mr. Heiser, the clerk in attendance, said that they had none of the ‘patterns mentioned, but that he would go’ for some. Mr. Heiser then left, requosting his visitor to take @ seat and await his roty 1. All at once the stranger bethought himself oi an engugo- ment across the way and intimated’ that he would re- turn in a few moments. On his way down stairs ho met Mr. Heiser coming back with the chains and told him he would return directly. On examination it was discovered that a package containing fifteen diamond studs, vatued at Fras, and twelve razors, which had been made up ready for delivery, had been stolen, Mr. Heiser furnished a description of the supposed thief, and James Roberts, ajias Curtin, alias Cun- ham, @ well known operator, was identified as the yy wanted. The prisoner was it for pean. larceny and he was yesterday called to the bar Assistant District Attorney Russell, in Part 2 of Court of General Seasions. Mr. Horatio C. King ay a private counsel on behalf of the com- nants. ‘I'he accused pleaded guilty and on motion Mrt Russell was remanded for sentence, in the hope of wecuring some of the stolen property. The career of the accused has been somewhat remarkable. It appears that ho was arrested in Philadelphia for » thelt and escaped from the court room while his trial ‘was in progress. After stealing the diamonds from Messrs. Taylor he went to Chicago, where he com- mitted another theft, and on being imprisoned there contrived to escape from the counsel room of the jafl in that city, Recently he was recognized by Detective Dorsey while taking & tour of observation in this city end overhauled, SUBJECT OF SUSPICION. Henry ©. Clark, said to be a young man of respecta- able connections, was arraigned for trial yesterday in Part 2 of the Court of General Sessions by Assistant District Attorney Russell on a charge of grand lar. ceny. The prisoner, who isa son of Colonel Clark, formerly of the Thirteenth rogithent, was « boarder in the honse of Kdward Gorman, No, 366 Bleecker street, Early on the morning of September 6 it was disvovered that a trunk belonging to Mrs. Gorman had been broken open and rifled of money and jew- elry amounting in value to $200. On ink ation f nished Detective O'Neill, of the Ninth precinct, ae rested Clark, in whose lon was found a latch key, Which Mrs, ss having been the sample one of use and which was locked up with the jewelry ip the trunk, Evidence was on de- fence to show that the prisoner's wife ven him pa ape cease the ny me pr oe m urned @ no! . was alleged FV ring teen: Coad, who was mn) i in the check conspiracy by which the Ho- ter trighton was defrauded, and who afterward while employed en the Brooklyn City Railroad as inspector sold to the conductors keys with which to “fix’’ the registers. Owing to the prgent solicitations of influen- friends he was not prosecuted on these charges. SUMMARY OF LAW CASES. The Grand Jury yesterday ordered a true bill against. Dr. Orlando E® Bradford and Dr. Clarence M. Baker, charged with being implicated in the death by alleged | malpractice of Sarah Victoria Conners, Henry Ohlin, s petroleum dealer, obtained yesterday from Judge Lawrence an alternative mandamus direct- ing the New York, Lake Erie and Western Railroad Company to show cause on the 18th inst, why it should not transport from Carrolton, N. Y., to Weehawken dock at the: usual rates such crude petroleum as he may offer them for transportation, send the same within # reasonable time and give him soe facilities with other shippers. It is stated by Mr. Ohlin that the company have to rt petroleum for him because Charles Pratt & Co. have secured a monop- oly to the exclusion of all others, Samuel Waggoner brought a suit in the Court of Common Pleas against William H. Church to recover the value of 110 shares of the Electro-Dynamic Light Company, of the ed par value of $100 each, the same being one-thirticth of the entire capital stock. He claims that in July last the defendant applied to him and by means of certain alleged false statements as to the condition of the company and the value of his shares induced him to part with the same to the defendant for the inadequate price of $135 for the whole of his interest. The defendant denies all the tions of fraud and misrepresentation, and upon his affidavits and the affidavits of the president and secretary of the company, setfing forth that the pisinde never owned any st f the company nor any interest in the same, Judge Larremore has dissolved a temporary injunction restraining any dis- position of the stock.

FIGHTING FOR THEIR OFFSPRING. REMARKABLE SCENE IN A PATERSON (N. J.) PO- LICE COURT—A FATHER AND MOTHER ALMOST PULL THEIR CHILDREN TO PIECES. “Who takes the children?’ asked Dennis Griffin, an undersized Hibernian, in the Paterson (N. J.) Police Court yesterday. The children in question—a little girl about three years old and # boy of five, both pretty, blue-eyed, flaxen-haired little ones—were Dennis’ own, “The father has a right to the custody of his chil- dren,” replied Judge Warren. “But he shan’t ‘ave them,” exclaimed Mrs. Griffin, the mother, a brawny English woman, as she darted from a distant corner of the room and made her way in front of the Recorder's deek.“ “He shan’t ‘ave ‘em |. unless he passes hover my dead body first,” continued the woman fiercely, as she seized the children by their little arms and attempted to pull tham away from her husband. “I shall have them,” shouted Dennis, making a dash and pulling them away from his wife after a hand-to- hand tussle. “You shan’t! You shan’t!” now fairly screamed the mother, springing st her husband like an enraged tigress and scratching and beating him until her strength was exhausted. But Dennis held on, and in the struggle that ensued the little ones were nearly pulled to pieces, so that they cried out with pain and fright. The scene was indescribable. Several policemen finally interfered to separate tho combatants and rescue the little ones. Mrs. Griffin made a final oh to seize ther, but was prevented by the police and had to be forced out of the room, the children crying after their mother in heartrending manner. When oe Nihil out oe the way, & father ap pealed plessly judge Warren. ‘“Jedge, what ever will I do with the c! for them ?” Wa hag bays A sont His Honor; we A wan! m; you havea them, 6 care of them.” ® _ THR YIONT RENEWED, The man was afraid to leave the court room with his charge, but was told nothing moro. could be done for him, and at last moved on. y, had the door closed behind him than the confused noise of a‘strug- gle, accompanied by loud screams and curses, and tho shrill, piping tonos of children were heard from the hallway. Policemen, reporters and loungers rushed out quickly and there found that the mother had lain in wait for the father and children, and upon their ap; had renewed the fight with redoubled fury. The crimson fluid was running in streaks down the face of Dennis, and the children, wild with afright, were screaming at the top of their voices, Again the combatants were separated, and this time the husband und his little ones were escorted out of the building. But there was too ate. with the mother to allow of her being ‘ed up. ‘The trouble in this case was twofold. Dennis, who is an industrious fellow, # flagman on the New Jersey Midland Kailroad, is said to be a trifle too fond of a certain woman at Riverside, a suburb of Paterson, and shis wife, 60 he said to a Henany rter, had hot washed or otherwise cared for the children for weeks, He was compelled to do their washing while the un- natural mother lay drunk. “The latter left home a wook ago, and while she was in this city Dennis re- moved the children to the home of the woman in Riverside, The mother returning demanded the little ones and, being refused, fought like a wild beast for their B mre in ‘The result wake that all the parties found themaelves yesterday before Judge Warren an furnished the highly dramatic scene of a father an peels yy bray lala ae court for the possession of offspring. rt; Ihave no one to carof| TILDEN’S INCOME TAX. ARGUMENT BEFORE JUDGE CHOATE TO SECURE THE PRODUCTION OF CERTAIN LEDGERS IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THIS DISTRICT—CAN IT BE DONE? i * In obedience to a subpoena duces tecum, issued to Mr. Martin L. Sykes, secretary and treasurer of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway Company, from the United States District Court in this district, re- quiring him to produce certain books, that gentleman appeared in court yesterday. He was, however, un- accompanied by any books, and a motion followed for an attachment against him. ‘The books required by the subpena were ledgers one and two of common stock and ledgers one and two of preferred stock of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway Company; also the stock register of the Peninsular Railroad of { Michigan, and other documents. They are to be used in the same suit as the bhgoks od to have been spirjted away from Michigan ut a month since during an examination in the suit of the United States against Mr. Tilden. Of the last named book and documents or their whereabouts Mr. Sykes protested that he had no knowledge. As to the others he stated they were in the main office of the company in Chi- cago, under the control of the president of the com- pany, and not under his control. Since recetving the subpomns he had tographed to 6 receiv! subpoena he pI Chicago on the subject as follows:—. New York, Nov. 6, 1878, To B,C. Coox, Chicago and Northwestern’ Railway Com- pany, Chieago — Assistant United States District Attorney Sherman makes the astonishing statement to Judge Choate as a rea- #on to compel me to produce books sent from this office to Chicago years ago that you told him the books were all there fand would be sent om my roquest wt any tino. There will be # motion to show cause why an wttachment should not issue against me to-morrow. M. L, SYKES, Vice President. To the foregoing the following reply was received :— Cu1cago, Nov. 6, 1878, M. L, Syxxs, New York :— Mr. Sherman is mistaken. Imadeno such statement. I declined to produce any books of company in court, but gave him permission to examine them fully in the office. After consulting with Mr. Howitt I declined to have uny books sent to New York. He was permitted to examine fully any books in this office that he asked for. hs 7 B. ©. COOK. He (witness) knew that if the solicitor advised the president of the company not to send the books they would not be sent, Along cross-examination of Mr. Sykes followed, in which District Attorney Woodford and his assistant, Mr. Sherman, took part, while the other side was represented by Mr. A. J. Vanderpoel and Mr. J.°S. Lawrence. Th@ substance of the witness’ answers was that he never knew of such o request being previously made to the officers of the company at.Chicago; in the absence of ‘the president he had entire charge of the office and books in New York; the stock register was kept here until filled up, and then was sent to Chicago; the stock book is in the immediate charge of a bookkeeper; the books called for were written ap eters he assumed his present re- lations to the New York office; he did not believe they prin send the books if he sent on a request to that effec! Mr. Sherman argued that Mr. Sykes should bo compelled to exhaust every means he has to produce the books, If he is unable to do so they would seck elsewhere for them. HAS HE AUTHORITY? Mr. J. 8. Lawrence cited the statute of Dlinois re- quiring the company to keep stock books in its gen- eral office in Chicago. salar Choate said it seemed to him the question was whether it could be legally assumed that the: po- sition of the witness in the company gave him unre- stricted control of the books. ‘Mr. Sherman read a provision of the bylaws of the company, to the effect that the Secretary shall keep all books and documents appertaining to his office, so as at all times to show the real condition of the com- pany’s affairs, He shall keep books upon which transfers of stocks shall be made by any stockholder or his attorney. Mr. Lawrence maintained that if he undertook to bring the books to this city he would have to assume a responsibility u®t portaining to his office. General Woodford—The practical point is this. All books of the company in New York are in this gentle- man’s physical custody. When he sends them away they are still in his legal custody. Mr, Sherman—The physical custody is in Chicago; but the legal custody is in Mr. Sykes. This concluded the discussiop, and Judge Choate ordered the case to stand over until Monday, when the witness must appear, and the case of the United States against Samuel J. Tilden, it is said, will be TILDEN’S COUNSEL MYSTIFIED. Counsel for Mr. Tilden expressed themselves at a Joss to know what the object of this application in this State could be, as the government counsel had had as much ape as they requested to ex- amine the books in Chicago. 3 On behalf of the government,’ Mr. Sherman stated that the object in procuring these particular books was to show the transfer of stock of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway to Mr. Tilden in exchange for stock of the Peninsular Railway of Michigan. The object of this suit is, as already stated in the Henatp, to recover from Mr. Tilden several hundred thousand dollars alleged to be due the government for income tax. . BEECHER AND BOWEN. - ‘The will of Miranda Wood, deceased, was presented for probate by Thomas Frazer in the Kings County Surrogate’s Court, before Surrogate A. H. Dailey, yes- terday. The decedent, who died at her place of res- idence, in Skillman street, Brooklyn, June 30, 1878, in the seventieth year of her age, had been a lifelong member of Plymouth Church. Her will, which is dtaed September 11, 1852, provides for the disposition of all her real and personal estate, which amounts to the value of about $4,000, and names as her executors “‘Rev.

QUESTION OF HOLINESS, Aconvention was organized yesterday in the John- son Street Methodist Episcopal Church, Brooklyn, to consider the question of holiness. Mr. William Peck Smith, the vice president of the Friends of Holiness, stated the object of the conference as being for the read of @ higher Christian life. Kdward Jones was elected president, Mr. Peck Smith was re-elected vice resident and Rey. J. E. Simmons second vice presi- lent. Samuel Johnson, of Newark, and Miss ©. E. Coffin, of Brooklyn, were appointed secretaries. Among the congregation were ministers and laymen of several denominations. INHARMONIOUS CONGREGATIONAL- ISTS. In the East Congregational Church, Tompkins ave- nue, Brooklyn, yesterday afternoon, the delegates chosen to a Congregational council assembled to con- sider the question of the reception of that Church into fellowship, and also for the examination and in- stalling of Rev. George C. Milne as: pastor. Rev. R. 8. Stone was choson moderator. Mr. lon, a dele- ational Church ate, gave a history of the East Co Society, which was 01 about a year ago, being a dissenting branch of the Puritan Church. Objection was made to the Church’s confession of faith, on the ad that it was too brief and incomplete. Mr. Virgin recommended that the Church draw up a more 8] ic statement of its doctrines. Mr. Milne said that all their doctrines were embraced in the Scriptures, and he handed to the moderator a copy of the New Testament. Mr, Smith said, ‘That kind of thing is an impertinenco. It is trifling with this Council.” It was moved by Dr. Wild that the matter be referred to a committee, to confer with the deacons and representatives of the Church. The motion did not prevail, and the Council adjourned for two A NEW CATHOLIC CHURCH. The Church of Our Lady df Graco, corner of Fourth and Willow streets, Hoboken, will be solemnly dedi- cated to divine worship on Sunday by Right Rev. Bishop Corrigan, of Newark.

MILLIONS OF DOLLARS INVOLVED An Attempt to Remove the Trustee of the Garner Estate. CHARGES OF MISMANAGEMENT. Alleged Unsafe Investment of Funds and Misappropriations. The long expected developments relative to the management of the Garner estate, which represents an appraised value of several millions of dollars, and which was briefly mentioned some time ago in the HERALD, came to light yesterday before Judge Speir, ho#ding Superior Court, Special Term. The matter came before the Court in an action brought by Mrs. Harriet H. Garner and Miss Fannie M. Garner,. her daughter, the widow and only chjld of the late Thomas Garner, Jr., to obtain from William E. Thorn, the trustee under the will of Thomas Garner, dr., an accounting and to have him put out of his office of trustee, which he has to resign. The grounds of the relief asked for are generally the im- proper and unsafe nature of the investments made by the trustee, the charging of certain sums against the estate never paid and the fact that William E. Thorn, the trustee, is pecuniarily irresponsible. THE COMPLAINT. The complaint alleges that Thomas Garner, Sr., died, leaving a will whereby, among other things, he left $1,000,000 to his son, Thomas Garner, Jr., to be paid him within eighteen months after the testator’s de- coase and that no payments or advances made to his children before his decease should be charged against them; that Thomas Garner, Sr., died leaying more than $6,000,000; that, while many other legacies were pitid—notably one to Frances A. Lawrence pf $1,000,000—the legacy of $1,000,000 to Thomas Garner, Jr., was never paid him; that ‘Thomas Garner, Sr., died leaving a will by which he left the income of heif* of his estate to his wife for life, the other half to his daughter and the whole income to his daughter after his wife's death, with the principal of the estate to his daughter's children, and appointed William T. Garner and William E. Thorn executors and trustees; that William T. Garner and wife made a mortgage to him- self and Thorn, as such trustees of Thomas Garner, Jr., upon certain property owned by William T. Garner for $90,000; that W. T. Garner ‘and William E. Thorn, as such trustees, also lent upon bond and mortgage $710,000 of said estate to the Harmony Mills at Cohoes, a corporation in which William T. Garner owned the majority of the stock; that they also charged and deducted $177,754 03, claimed to have been paid by Garner & Co. for Thomas Garner, Jr., in his lifetime; $7,154 55 for personal taxes for 1869 and 1870, and $25,461 78 com- missions and expenses of executors; ‘that the prop- erty upon which nearly $800,000 was loancd as above stated was mill property dependent upon Garner & Co. for its value and existence, and an unsafe investment and unfit and unsuitable security and such as no prudent trustee would accept, and that in addition they also put a mortgfge for $790,000, belonging to the estate of Anna Garner, upon the Har- mony Mills at the same time, with covenants in each mortgage that neither should have a priority over the other; that this was done go that they could keep the money ip the busintss of Garner & Co, and not pay it ts ALLEGED NEGLIGENCE. That Thorn is so negligent that he has not taken assignments of the insurance on the premises covered by said mortgages, but has allowed it to be assigned to Garner & Co.; that the sums of $177,754 03, $7,154 55 and $25,461 78, mentioned above, were improperly de- ducted from the trust estate; that Thomas Garner, Jr., was a member of the firm of Garner & Co., and had an interest therein more ‘than equivalent to the aggregate of these amounts, and that the trustees were not entitled to any commissions. The com- plaint then goes on to state that as to $7,154 55 for personal taxes paid, no such taxes were paid nor could have been paid, as the estate was not on the tax books for those years and was not and the books in the tax. office show that no such taxes were paid, but that said sum is half of the sum for those for personal taxes upon the estate of Thomas Garner, SP, and William . Garner's own personal taxes, and which he and Thorn have wrong- fully and apn charged against this estate, charging the other half to the estate of Anna Garner. ATTACHED TO THE INTERESTS OF GARNER & CO. The cont then goes on to say that upon the death of William T. Garner it became the duty of William E. Thorn, as sole trustee, to enforce it the firm of Garner & Co. the claims of this estate, which he has neglected todo. That the busi- ness of the firm of er & Co. is carried on at a loss; that plaintiffs believe Thorn to be prejudiced against them and hostile to them, and careleas and indifferent to their interests, and that his motives and actions are all governed by predilection in favor of the firm of Garner & Co., a8 now carried on, and the plaintiffs fear that in consequence their trust o will be impaired and lost if left under his con- trol ALL THEY HAVE FOR THEIR SUPPORT. It is further stated that the plaintiffs have requested Thorn to have the mortgages before mentioned paid off, and to reinvest the amount .more securely, but ho has refused to do so, and they aver that such trust estate is their only reliance for support, that they have no other property, and that Thorn is a man of no responsibility, and they submit that the circum- stances above set forth show that he is not a fit or suitable person to be longer intrusted with the trust estate; that it should be more securely in’ , and that unless this is done it may result in the ruin of Sha piaindlite snd in. Chath Aageirsion, of the means of suppor LITTLE FANNIE'S SHARK. The complaint then goes on to state that of the pro- portion of the income of the trust estate which by the terms of the will waa made applicable to the use of eon M. poem oh only a Ray Le dep my ly appropriat that purpose and that the surplus of it has been retained by the trustees or by Thorn as the survivor, for the purpose of accumulation; but how. the same has been used the plaintiffs say they donot know nor have they been informed, except so far as the information communicated by means of the letters written by Thorn to Mrs. Garner refer to the investment of such surplus.
