Bangor. Maine, December 25.—An
excitement was created liere to-day by re
ports of an intended removal of arms and
ammunition from the State Arsenal to the
depot for transportation to Augusta. About
five o'clock, p. m., two track teams loaded
with arms and ammunition were stopped
•>n the Kender-Keag bridge by a crowd,
which rapidly increased to a throng that
filled the Mrecls, declaring that the arms
should never be carried out of the city. Q
Mayor Brown demanded of the team-
atcr tlie orders under which lie was acting.
No satisfactory answer was given at first.
A young man named French.a’ppeared.wlio
said Ik- w as a clerk in the Adjutant Gen
eral's office, ami was moving the arms to
Augusta under orders from the Governor.
Tin- excitement of the populace was
greatly increased by this statement, and
the crowd attempted to unharness the
horses.
The Mayor told French lie had not
force enough to guarantee the safety of
the munitions if the attempt to remove
them was persisted in, while the people
were so excited. He would take no re
sponsibility for tlie trouble that might
ensue.
French decide.! tliat it was best to re
turn the anus to the arsenal, rather than
incur the risk of a riot, and the Mayor
ftimishe.1 a guard of police to protect them
ea their return.
Public excitement wa« increased by a
report tliat J. I.. Smith, the Greenback
candidate for Governor, S. IV. Haskins,
Fusion Indian Agent, and Mayor M. M.
Fobora. of Oldiewn, were closeted at the
Penobscot Exchange during the day, and
Mayor Folsom appeared on the ground
after the team lad turned lack, and told
Clerk French that he made a mistake in
not pushing tliera through to the depot
and urged him to change liis orders for
their return to the arsenal.
Mr. French. however, was unwilling to
assume tlx- responsibility of a collision
with the populace. The excitement is at
fever heat throughout tlie city.

SUPREME COURT.
Decisions Rendered December 23d,
1879—Hon. Hiram Warner Chief
Justice, Hon. James Jackson and
Logan E. Bleckley Associate Justi
ces.
Thos. H. Cuyler et. al., vs. Henry C.
Wayne, administrator of John C. Fer
rell. Ejectment, from Chatham.
Warner, C. J.—The suit below was
an action of ejectment in Chatham Supe
rior Court, brought by Thos. H. Cuyler,
Estelle Smith, (formerly Culyer), ana
Georgia C. Branham, (formerly Cuyler),
against John C. Ferrell, to recover an un
divided half of a certain real estate situa
ted in the city of Savannah, and also, the
rents thereof since October 1,1863, of the
yearly value of $3,000.00. Suit brought
on December 30,1S69.
Ferrell, after suit was brought, died, and
Henry C. Wayne, Ids administrator, was
made party in his stead, at the January
term, 1872.
The defendant pleaded the general is
sue and the statute of limitations.
The case came on for trial on January
23, 1870, before Ids Honor Henry B.
Tompkins, judge, in said court presiding,
when by the written agreement of both
sides, the whole case was submitted to the
court for trial without jury, except as to
the amount of mesne profits, which was
referred to a jury and assessed at $500.00
per annum, for as many years as the
court shall decide plaintiffs were entitled
to recover.
The plaintiffs introduced the will of Jer-
miah Cuyler conveying the entire proper
ty, one undivided half of which D involved
in this suit, to certain daughters for life,
with remainder to Ids two sons John M.
and Telamon Cuyler in fee. It was shown
that the last of the life tenants died in
1S63, and that the title then vested in pos
sesion of John M. Cuyler, as to one undi
vided half, and as to the other half in the
three plaintiffs, the children of Telamon
Cuyler, he having previously died. The
defendant then admitted that he or his in
testate. Ferrell, had been continuously in
possession of the property since August
14th, 1863, and that they claimed title un
der or through the plaintiffs.
It was proved that Thomas H. Cuyler
was bom on January 29,1845; and Estelle
Cuyler on January 2-4, 1851.
S. F. Bell testified that he was a real
estate agpnt and knew this property in
dispute. The entire property, one undi
vided half of which is sued for, had been
worth for rent since the close of the war
an average annual sum of $2,500. Was
worth much more for several years after
tlie war, but is now worth less.
Plaintifis closed.
The defendant introduced the following
record of partition proceedings:
Georgia, Floyd county—To John R
Freeman, guardian of Thomas Cuyler,
and A. B. Boss, guardian ot Estelle Cnyr
ler, minor children of Telamon Cuyler,
deceased: You are hereby notified that I

Then follows a petitition to the Superior
Court of Chatham county, signed by J.
Branham, Jr., trustee for Georgia C.
Branham, showing that the property, one
undivided half of which D involved in the
present suit, had vested as to one undi
vided half in John M. Cuyler, and as to
to the other half in the children of Tela
mon Cuyler, deceased, to-wit: Thomas
H. Cuyler, minor, of whom John R. Free
man D guardian, Estelle Cuyler, minor,
of whom A. B. Ross D -guardian, and
Georgia C. Branham, formerly Georgia
C. Cuyler, the wife of petitioner, and of
whom the petitioner was trustee. Tliat
the said John M. Cuyler and the said
Freeman as guardian of Thomas H. Cuy
ler, and the said Ross as guardian of Es
telle Cuyler, and the petitioner are the
common owners of said property, the said
guardians and the petitioner being entit led
to one-half, making the petitioner’s share
one-sixth of the whole. The petitioner
was desirous of having the property part i
tioned between the aforesaid parties and
himself. That it could not be divided
fairly by metes and bounds on account of
improvements. Therefore, he prayed for
the appointment of commissioners to sell
the property for divDion as by law in such
case provided. States “that notice of this
application lia? been given, a copy of
which is hereto annexed.” Dated May
11, 1863.
Then follows the order of the court, re
citing the substance of the petition ; that
the petitioner had proved his title to one-
sixth of the property; that a divDion by
metes and bounds was Impracticable; “and
it further “appearing that the notice re
quired had been given,” a sale of the prop
erty is ordered; and George W. Wyly,
Thomas Purse and John Williamson, are
appointed to conduct said sale, and di
rected to sell at public outcry, etc., after
advertDing thirty days, and to make re
turn of their proceedings to the next term
of said court. Dalton, May 16,1861.

Wa. H. Bullock, Clerk.
Next follows the return of the commis
sioners, stating “that in pursuance of the
terms of the decree,” etc., the property
“was duly exposed for sale before the court
house in Chatham county, and brought
the sum of $30,000.00.” Thaethe expen
ses of the sales were $1,243.50, leaving a
balance of S34,756.50. Of this they had
paid to J. Branham and J. R. Freemau,
guardian of Thomas H. Cnyler and to A.
B. Ross, guardian of Estelle Cuyler, each,
the sum of $5,807.83, leaving a balance of
$17,333.00, or onc-lialf the proceeds of tlie
sale, which they say, “under the will of
Jeremiah Cuyler is devised to Dr. John
M. Cuyler, a surgeon in the army of the
United States,” ThD sum they had in
vested under the currency act of the Con
federate States infourpercent. certificates'
etc.
Report signed by the commissioners,
and dated June 1, 1804.
The defendant next introduced the deed
made by said commissioners in pursuance
of said sale conveying the property to John
C. Ferrell, the defendant’s intestate,dated
August 14, 1863, which deed the plaintifis
admitted to be regular and conveyed the
title if the sale was legal or binding on
them.
It was also in open court admitted by
the plaintiffs, that Branham, in right of his
wife, and Freeman, as guardian of Thom
as H. Cuyler, and Ross, acting as guard
ian of Estelle Cuyler, received from the
commissioners in the partition proceed
ings, on October 1, 1863, the proceeds of
the sale of the property, the parties hav
ing come to Savannah for that purpose;
that on the same day they invested the
money (Confederate currency) in a farm
in Floyd county, taking the title to them
in their said representative capacities.
That on October 29, 1S68, Estelle Cnyler
was married to H. H. Smith. On June
7th, 1S69, Branham and wife, and Smith
and wife Estelle, and Thomas H. Cuyler,
exchanged the farm for a house and lot in
Rome, Georgia, all joining in the deeds.
That Branham soon afterthought Thomas
H. Cuyler’s interest in the house and lot
for $700 or $800. Smith and wife Estelle
sold their interest on December 9,1870,
for $700, and invested the proceeds in part
purchase of a lot in Rome, taking the title
to Smith as trustee for Estelle, on Janua
ry 12, 1871, on which lot Smith afterwards
built a house, and he and his family have
continuously lived there since.
Ross also acted as- guardian for Estelle
in the division of some negroes of the es
tate of Telamon Cuyler, in July, 1862, the
day after he was appointed guardian; but
he was a mere nominal party to the pro
ceeding, and did not receive the negroes,
wliich remained with Estelle’s mother and
step-father D. M. Hood.
It was admitted by tlie plaintiffs that J.
R. Freman was regularly appointed and
qualified as guardian of Thomas Cuyler,
on July 7,1862, by the ordinary of Floyd
county.
The defendant aDo introduced a tran
script of the record of the proceedings had
in the Court of Ordinary of Floyd county,
for the appointment of A. B. Ross as
guardian of Estelle Cuyler.
The first thing in said proceedings is
the order of the ordinary, which after re
citing that citation had issued requiring
all persons concerned to show cause why
guardianship should not be granted to A.
B. Ross or some other fit person, for the
property of Estelle Cuyler, and no cause
being shown, etc., proceeds. “It D ordered
by the court that letters of guardianship
issued to A. B. Ross, Clerk of the Superi
or Court of the county aforesaid, accord
ing to the statute in such case made and
provided, he taking the usual oath of of
fice.” Signed bv the ordinary and dated
July 7, 1S62.
Then follows the oath taken by Ross as
guardian, in the usual form- Also the let
ters of guardianship, which are signed
by the ordinary, and are addressed to
“Absolom B. Ross,” simply. Both dated
July 7, 1862. This transcript D exhibit
C, in the last of the record.
The defendant admitted that Boss nev
er gave bond as guardian of Estelle.
The defendant Wayne testified that he as
administrator took charge of the property
in dispute in 1871. That the entire property
had been worth since then an average rent
of $175.00 per month [$2,100 per an
num], but the taxes, insurance and re
pairs had been about $1,000 a year, exclu
sive of commissions for collecting the
rent.
The defendant also introduced tlie re
cord of a suit in equity in the United
States Circuit Court for the Southern
District of Georgia, brought in February,
1867, by John M. Cnyler, against D. M.
Hood and his wife Frances, “Estelle Cuy
ler, a minor,” Joel Branham and Georgia
C., Ins wife, and John C. Ferrell. The
bill states that the complainant D a son of
Jeremiah Cnyler; sets forth the will of
Jeremiah, and his title under that will to
an undivided half of the property therein
conveyed, and the title of the heirs of hD
brother Telamon Cuyler to the other half,
as shown in former'part of thD brief Of
evidence. Frances Hood haring been the
widow of Telamon Cuyler, but her inter
est and that of her husband, D. M. Hood,
haring been conveyed to her children, as
shown in the partition proceedings, That
Thomas H. Cuyler, the remaining heir of
Telamon then resided out of the Jiirisdic-
tion of the court, and conld not be served.
That complainant has heard that some of
the parties during the war had instituted
proceeding and Had the property sold for
partition, and that John C. Ferrell had
purchased the property at such sale and
paid for it in Confederate currency. That
complainant was at that time a surgeon in
the United States Army, and engaged in
the discharge of hD duties as such, and
had no notice whatever of such proceed
ings, and the same are not binding on him,
etc. He prays that the property may be

gations; give a statement of the proceed
ings and sale for partition, and reasons
why they desired a partition; and state
that they are trilling to abide tha same.
In the concluding part of the answer it D
stated that D. M. Hood answers for Es
telle Cuyler, as next friend, she being
still a minor.
The decree, rendered October 26,1868,
is as follows:
“This cause came on to be heard at
this term of the court and was argued by
counsel, and thereupon under considera
tion thereof it is ordered, adjudged and de
creed as follows:
1. That a partition be made of the
premises in said bill of complaint describ
ed, so that one moiety thereof shall belong
to the complainant in severalty and to him
delivered for his several possession and
enjoyment forever.
“2. That William R. Boggs, A. N. Wil
son and A. S. Hartridge, Esqs., are hereby
appointed commissioners to make such
partition in terms of the law, and report
their action to the next of this court. And
if said commissioners shall find it imprac
ticable to divide said premises into two
equal moitics so that one of the same may
be assigned to the complainant, then they
shall report that fact to the court, and ab
stain from further action until further
order.
3. TliatE. J. Harden, Esq.,is hereby ap
pointed a master in chancery pro hacvice
in this case to take the account between
the complainant, John M. Cuyler, and the
defendant, John C. Ferrell,of all rents and
irofits, if any, that may be due from the
atter to the former, whether by actual re
ceipt of rents and profits issuing out of
said prenuses, or by reason of the occupa
tion of the premDes by the defendant him
self, charging said defendant with one
moiety of the whole, and giving him credit
for one moiety of the actual necessary ex
penses incurred and paid by him touching
said premises.
On November 16,1868, two of the com
missioners named in the foregoing decree,
report to the court that they' find it im
practicable to divide the premises into two
equal moities.
On December 10, 1872, the following
appears:
“John M. Cuyler, complainant, vs. Henry
C. Wayne, administrator, John C. Fer
rell, defendant. In equity.
“This cause came on to be further
heard at this term, and was argued by
counsel, and therefore upon consideration
thereof it was ordered, adjudged and de
creed as follows, viz: That the loD num
bers one and two, Huck’s Tything, Perci-
valward, in the city of Savannah, with
the improvements and appurtdnanccs, be
long in equal undivided moities to tlie
said complainant and his assigns and to
the said defendant as the administrator of
the estate of John C. Ferrell, as of and
from October 26, 1808, the date of the
original decree in said cause.
That the said parties so holding tlio
said property as tenant in common shall
determine among themselves as to their
ownership respectively of said lots and
appurtenances, equalizing tlie value there
of according to the election which may be
made in the manner provided by the com
missioners appointed by this court, the
final report of said commissioners having
been adopted by the court. It is further
ordered that the complainant do recover
his costs against the said defendant.”
On the triiil of this case the court ren
dered a finding hi favor of the defendant,
and ordered that the defendant have leave
to enter up judgment against the plaintifis,
and judgment was so signed by counsel
for defendant. Date of finding and judg
ment, January 24, 1879.

We might rest our judgment in thD case
right here, but as the question was dis
cussed on the argument as to whether a
guardian was required to give bond and
security, especially when the clerk of the
Superior Court is appointed a . guar
dian for minors by the Ordin
ary, or whether it is discretionary
with the ordinary to require bond and se
curity, we will express our opmionupon S5“S Winter .-Xa* Chicane apriai
that question. In our judgment the law re- - - - - — ->—*-* — ~— s
quires that bond and security should be
given in all cases upon the appointment
of a guardian by the ordinary. Code 1812.
Bnt the grant of letters of guardianship by
the ordinary without taking bond, though
erroneous, would not make the grant of
the letters void as against a bona fide pur
chaser who had no notice that a bond
had not been given. 13th Ga. Rep., 10,
