Syllabus

<p>Surcharge of executor — Mingling of funds in private business — Rights of legatees.</p> <p>Where the business of an estate was designedly mingled with that of a bank of which the executor was cashier and part owner, the legatees should not suffer in their distributive- shares through the attempt of the executor as cashier to make money for the bank. A surcharge will be sustained which gives to the legatees just what they are entitled to receive, while at the same time fairly compensating the executor for all duties performed.</p>
