The doctrine that where two persons sustain to each other a family relation one cannot recover against the personal representatives of the other on account of services rendered in that relation except on proof of a contract to make compensation therefor, does not apply to a claim by a guardian for services rendered to an imbecile ward. p</p> <p>2. In such case allowance for services and compensation is by Section 109S3, General Code, to be determined by the court settling the guardian’s account, and, it not being a personal claim against the ward, it need not in case of his decease, be presented to his personal representatives.</p>
