The lunatic daughter had an estate from her father the income of which was sufficient for her support. Held, that the committee of the lunatic had a right to demand from the trustee the whole of the income of the trust estate for the maintenance of the lunatic notwithstanding the fact that the lunatic had an income from her individual estate.</p>
