Syllabus

<p>1. Admiotsteatob, C. T. A.: Sale of lands. Case in judgment.</p> <p>The executor of Mrs. T. resigned, and S. T. was appointed administrator a. t. a. The will directed the sale of a certain lot of land. S. T. advertised the land for sale under the will. W. enjoined the sale, claiming to have purchased the land from the heirs. The administrator answered, and, upon final hearing, the court decreed a perpetual injunction against the sale under the will, and also decreed a sale of the land to pay debts. Held, that this decree to sell the land to pay debts was improper and unauthorized, as neither of the parties had asked for such relief or such decree.</p>
