Where the mother claims the willow’s homestead and proves the necessitous circumstances of her children and her self, she is entitled to the usufruct and the children to the amount.</p> <p>2. The delays in the opening of a succession to which a creditor has given his sanction, afford him no ground of complaint.</p> <p>3. The widow’s acts, as relate to the community between her and her late husband, are not construed into a tacit acceptance of the community. If they were, the children would not be thereby prejudiced in their rights to recover the property.</p> <p>4. The fees and charges as fixed by the court below are not excessive.</p>
