CRAPSTER v. GRIFFITH.

DECREED, that the release signed and sealed by the complainant
Harriet, filed with the proceedings, exhibit No. 6, be set aside,
annulled, and declared void as such, leaving the money and arti-
cles therein referred to, to be restored or "accounted for as shall
hereafter be ordered. And that the defendant account with the
complainants for their proportion of the personal estate, and for
the rents and profits of the real estate in the proceedings men-
tioned. That the said accounts be stated by the auditor according
to the proof already taken, and in addition thereto, on such proof
as may be produced by either party; and to be returned, subject
to the farther order and decree of this court.

The plaintiffs, by their petition, stated that they had frequently
applied to the auditor to state an account, as directed by this
decree, which he had not done, by which means the defendant
•was left in the full enjoyment of all their property, to their great
delay and injury. Wherefore, they prayed, that the auditor might
be ordered to proceed without delay, &c.

5th June, 1812.—KILTY, Chancellor.—The auditor is directed
to proceed immediately on the statement of the accounts under the
decree; unless prevented by any particular circumstances, which
circumstances, if any, he will state to the court.

After which, the auditor stated, and on the 2d of July, 1812,
reported an account, as required by the decree; which was suf-
fered to remain some time without objection, when the case was
again brought before the court by the plaintiffs.

15th July, 1812.—KILTY, Chancellor.—The report having been
docketed, and laid during the first seven days of the present term,
the complainants are entitled, under the rule of the court, to have
the accounts ratified, or examined and decided on.

DECREED, on the application of the complainants, that the ac-
count reported by the auditor, and filed, as above mentioned, on
the 2d day of July, 1812, be ratified and confirmed; and, that the
defendant Lyde Griffith do forthwith pay to the complainants, or
bring into this court to be paid to them, the sum of £363 2s. Id.
