As  appears  from  the  record  the  master  reported  certain
testimony  as  taken  by  him,  and  the  court,  upon  final  hearing,
charged  the  guardian  with  the  sum  of  $750  in  addition  to  the
balance  reported  by  the  guardian,  with  six  per  cent  per  annnnv
from  November  20,  1880,  with  annual  rests,  for  money  real-
ized by  the  guardian  from  the  sale  of  the  ward's  real  estate,
and  it  was  ordered  that  the  guardian  pay  to  the  administra-
trix of  the  ward  the  sum  of  $1,154,  that  being  the  amount
found  to  be  due  in  that  behalf,  within  sixty  days,  and  that  the
guardian  pay  the  cost  of  the  proceeding.  Regarding  the
proof  contained  in  tlie  report  of  the  master,  it  is  somewhat
uncertain  whether  the  ward  had  attained  the  age  of  eighteen
years  when  the  real  estate  was  sold,  but  her  exact  age  is  not  a
controlling  circumstance  in  view  of  the  other  facts  appearing
from  the  report.
It  appears  that  on  the  20th  of  November,  1880,  the  ward
then  being  probably  about,  if  not  a  little  over,  the  age  of
eighteen  years,  conveyed  the  land  to  the  guardian,  and  that
the  latter  on  the  same  day  conveyed  to  one  Remain,  who
paid  her  therefor  the  sum  of  $750.  It  api^ears  also  that  this
was  in  pursdance  of  an  arrangei  lent  agreed  upon,  before ;
Romain  having  desired  for  some  time  to  acquire  the  land  but
the  ward  being  unwilling  to  sell  to  him  direct,  or  at  least
refusing  to  do  so.
