WARNER, J.
Where an action was brought on a
guardian’s bond against tho principal
and securities, in the namo of the Or
dinary, for tho uso of tho wards of tho
guardian, to recover damages for the
alleged broach thereof by.thc guardi
an, and on tho trial, tho plaintiff of
fered in evidence tho recyits of tho
guardian, acknowledging to have re
ceived of E. Cherry, deceased, the sum
of 87,0(18.77, as the amount due by
thpm to her as tho guardian of her
wards Tho defendants offered to
prove by ono of tho defendants that
Sena J. Cherry, the guardian of her
fivo minor children, received into her
hands three negroes of the value of
$3,000.00, one note on Whaley for
81,300.00 and ono note on Reddick,
tho witness, for $1,350.00; that it was
for said negroes and notes that tho re
ceipts of the guardian to executors of
Cherry were given; that no other
property except said negroes and notes,
and some $700.00 worth of property
which she bought at tho sale, came
into h<* hands ; that witness paid his
note in Confederate money in 1803 or
1804, tliat tho consideration of the
note on Whaley has been since the
war insolvent; that the guardian pur
chased said negroes at the sale of the
property of F. Cherry at tho price of
$3,000.00, tliat when she afterward
became guardian of the minor chil
dren, she, as such guardian receipted
tho executors for the estate of said mi
nors, that she and the editors in
cluded the price of said negroes in said
receipt, that sho held said negroes,
and trrated them as the property of
said wards, and that said negroes were
set free by the results of the war.—
Tho court ruled out all this evidence,
and excluded the same from the jury,
to which tho defendants excepted :
IIM, That the court below should
have admitted tho evidence to go to
the jury, and have given to them in
charge, the law applicable thereto.
Held, also, That if Mrs. Cherry, be
fore she became guardian of her mi
nor children, purchased the negroes
in her own right at tho executors’ sale
of her deceased husband’s property,
and was indebted to tho executors
therefor, ami after she bocamo the
guardian of her children, receipted to
them for the amount duo by her as so
much money received from them duo
to her wards, and thereby cancelled
her own indebtedness to thorn for tho
shares so purchased, and charged her
self, ns guardian, with the debt as be
ing due by her to her wards, that it
was, in law, a violation, and tho orig
inal contract between her and the ex
ecutors, the consideration of which,
was shares, was extinguished and at
an end, and cannot be set up by tlio
defendants in a suit on the guardian’s
bond as being a debt, the consideration
of which was a share or shares.
Judgment reversed.
