WHITTLE AND BLISS.
THE EVANGELISTS IN AUGUSTA.
Avery large congregation attended
the Bible reading at Greene Street Bap
tist Church yesterday morning.
The exercises were opened by singing
My heart, that was heavy and ead,
was made to rejoiae and be glad,
And peace without measure I had.
When the Comforter came,
A few moments were spent in silent
prayer; afterwards Rev. Mr. Bothwell
and Rev. Mr. Kimball successively led
in audible prayer.
Mr. Bliss sang
tion—the congregation singling every
alternate line and all uniting in the
chorus:
More and more, more and more,
Always more to follow;
Oh. his matchless, boundless store!
Still there’s more to follow. *
Two men, past middle life, who want
to oome to Jesns, solicited an interest
in the prayer of the church. A request
was precented for prayer in behalf of a
husband, son and brother.
In response to an invitation from Mr.
Whittle, a large number in the audienoe
manifested a desire for an interest in
the prayer to be offered.
Mr. w. desired that God’s blessing
ahonld b-. asked on the Sabbath School
superintendents, officers, teachers and
pupils, as they meet on the Sabbath.
Those requests were mentioned in the
prayer made by Mr. J. W. Wallace.
tit. Bliss sang, with his usaal sweet
ness and power,
Read ye the story o’er and o’er
Of grace so fall and free.
Mr. Whittle announced, as the lesson
of the hour, the second chapter of Acts.
Before commencing to read he said
that in going into battle we always like
to know how many weapons we have; so
in these Bible readings he desired to
know how many were present with their
Bibles.
The 14th-31st verses, inclusive, were
then read—Mr. W. and those who had
brought their Bibles reading each alter
nate verse.
Mr. W. remarked that we glean from
the Scripture read that when certain
AiasijWku were astanished at the occur-
Knol lit dal<fme to ask what, it
hoarbFine day,’’ These people could
not understand the wonderful manifes
tations occasioned by the descent of the
Holy Spirit. They began, j ust as men
always do, to attribute the work of God
to natural causes. Having arraigned their
nnb lief, Peter tells them that that was
but the fulfillment of the prophesy of
Joel, which applies to this whole dis
pensation from >he ascension of, Christ
t ill His coming again. (The characteris
tic of the present dispensation was ihal
the Gospel was being preached accom
panied by the Spirit and with power; its
golden invitation waa that whosoever
shall call upon the name of the Lard
Jesus shall be saved.
The central point that Peter made
was that Jesus Christ had risen from
the dead and gone up into Heaven. God
raised Christ from the dead, thereby
testifying His satisfaction with Christ’s
work.
Peter spoke of the resurrection and
ascension of Christ naturally and ear
nestly, because he knew of it. How
much more earnest would be our words
in Jesus' name if we ooqld feel that we
know of His ascension.
The congregation then engaged in
singing the hymn which begins,
Sun of my soul. Thou Saviour, dear,
it is not night 4 Ifioft be nejf.

SUPREME .conn DECISIONS
DECISIONS RENDERED APRIL 11, 1876.
IE 2 [Atlanta ConsKtaHon ]
. Jackson, J., being related to some of
the parties to this litigation, did not pre
side.
Johnson et al vs. Jackson, adminis
trator ee at. Debt, from Tronp.
Warner, C. J.
This was an action brought by the
plaintiffs as the heirs and distributees
of H. T. Erwin, deceased, against
Wyche 8. Jackson, administrator of
said Erwin and his securities on his
administration bond, in the county of
Tronp, all the defendants being alleged
to be of said county, except Jones, who
is alleged to be of the county of Baker,
in this State. The plaintiffs alleged
in their declarations that Jackson was
appointed administrator on Erwin’s es
tate by the Probate Court of Chambers
coanty, in the State of Alabama, in the
year 1859, and then and there the defen
dants executed the bond sued on, oon-‘
ditioDed for the faithful performance of
his duty as such administrator. The
plaintiffs also alleged that as such ad
ministrator be possessed himself of the
estate of said Erwin of the value of
$75,000, and has wasted and appropriat
ed the same to his own use. The plain
tiffs also allege that they brought suit
in the Superior Court of Troup coanty
against said Jackson, as administrator
aforesaid, for an acconnt and settlement
and obtained a decree against him for
the snm of $1,596 95, besides interest
and costs, in that Court; that no part of
said decree has been paid; that a fieri
facias has been issued thereon, and
a return of nulla bona has been made
thereon by the sheriff of Troup county,
all of which the plaintiffs allege as a
breach of his bond, and now seek to
recover the amonnt of said decree from
the defendant aDd his seenrities on his
aforesaid administration bond. The
defendants demurred to the plaintiffs’
declaration, and made a motion to dis
miss the plaintiffs’ action, on the grounds
that the Superior Court of Tronp county
had no jurisdiction of the case, which
demurrer and motion the Court sustain
ed and the plaintiffs executed. There
wo* no point made that the defendants
had not been regnlarly served with pro
cess as required by the law of this State
The question made, and insisted on
here was, that the Court had no juris
diction of the case, becans the ad
ministrator had been appointed by the
Probate Court of the State of Alabama,
and that the bond sued on bad been
taken by that Court in that State, and
must be sued on there, and oonld not
be sued on in the Courts of this State,
although the defendants might be per
sonally liable to be sned here. What
ever may have been the dicisions of
other Courts in relation to the ques
tion of jurisdiction in this class of cases
(aud it is conceded that they are con
flicting), still, if it was an original ques
tion iu this Court, I should hold that it
was controlled by the constitution and
laws of this State, so far as our own
Courts are concerned. By the consti
tution, tne Superior Courts of this State,
have jurisdiction of all civil cases, ex
cept as therein otherwise provided.
The sovereignty and jurisdiction of the
State, and the laws therof, extend to all
persons while within its 1 limits,
whether as citizens, denizens or tempo
rary sojonrners—Code 21. A citizen
•f another State passing through this
State may be sued in any county there
of in which he may happen to be at
the time when sued—Code 3416. The
provisions of the law are general and
include executors and administrators
as well as all other persons; there is no
exception made in favor of executors
and administrators, or sureties ou their
bonds. If they come within the juris
dictional limits of the State they may
be sued in any county in the State in
which they may happen to be at the
time when sued. The policy of the State
is to furnish her own people with a
remedy to recover their rights in her
own Courts, without compelling them
to go into a foreign jurisdiction to ob
tain their lawful and just olaims. These
principles were fully recognized by
this Court in Molyneux vs. Seymour,
Fannin & Cos., 80th Geo. Rep., 440, in
which it was held that all persons
within the limits of a government,
whether their residence he deemed per
manent or temporary, are to be deemed
so far citizens, or subjects thereof, as
that the right of jurisdiction, civil, and
criminal, will attach to such persons.
When a foreign executor or administra
tor is sued in the Courts of this State,
the nature and extent of his liability,
will depend upon the laws of the State
or country where ho derived his author
ity to administer the assets of the de
cedent. The assets of the deceased
should be applied in the payment of
debts, or be distributed among the next
of kin, by our own Courts, according to
the law of that State or country, in the
same manner as if the executor or ad
minister had been sued and called on to
account in the Courts of that State or
country, and that is the comity of States
as recognized by the 9th section offthe
Code. Why shonld the distributees of
the deceased, who are citizens of the
State, be compelled to go into the for
eign State of Alabama to obtain their
rights, when the Courts of this State
can afford them the same redress as the
Courts of that State ? Should the Courts
of this State presume that the Courts of
Alabama are more competent to admin
ister the law applicable to the case, and
send the plaintiffs there for that reason?
When a foreign executor or administra
tor comes within the jurisdictional limits
of this State, he is, in my judgment,
liable to be sued here by the distribu
tees of the estate whioh he represents,
and be made liable to the same extent
as he wonld be liable according to the
laws of the State in whioh he was ap
pointed, and not otherwise. In what I
have said I have only expressed my in
dividual opinion, and not that of the
Court.
But assuming the general rule to be
that an executor or administrator can
not be sued out of the State in which he
Was appointed, the special facts of this
oose, in oar judgment, take it out of
that general rule. It appears from the
allegation in the plaintiffs’ declaration
that Jackson, the administrator, has
been shed by the plaintiffs, and called
on to account in that capacity in the
Superior Court of this State, and a de
cree rendered against him establishing
the fact that he bad wasted and appro
priated to his own nse the assets of his
intestate’s estate to the amonnt of
$1,596, 94. The plaintiffs also allege
that the defendants are all
residents of this State. The 2034th
section of the Revised Code of Alabama
declares that “any bond given by execu
tors or administrators as, suob, may be
sued or proceeded on in the name of any
party aggrieved until the whole penalty
is exhausted.” The plaintiffs have been
aggrieved, as they allege, by a breach of
the administrator’s bond and seek their
remedy thereon against the defendants,
who are alleged to be residents here, in
the Coarts of this State. The 3250th
section of oar Code declares that for
every wrong there shall be a remedy,
and every Court having jurisdiction over
the. one may, if necessary, frame the
other. That the plaintiffs have a right
to recover against the defendants, ac
cording to the allegations in their dec
larations, in some Courts, is indisputa
bly true. They cannot sue the defen
dants in Alabama for the simple reason,
as it appears on the face of the plaintiffs’
declaration, that they are not there to
be sued, but are resident in the State
where they are sned. It was suggested
on the argument, to allow the defendants
to be sued in this State and recovery
had against them here, wonld have the
effect to withdraw the assets of the es
tate from the State of Alabama, and
defeat the claims of creditors there.
The reply to that suggestion is, that
tlie plaintiffs’ as distributees, would not
be entitled to recovery in the Courts u#
this State any more than they would in
the Courts of Alabama, until all the in
testate’s debts were paid—and the de
cree rendered against him, as set forth
in the plaintiffs declaration, establishes
the fact, so far as the administrator
himself is concerned, that he has wast
ed and appropriated to his own nse the
sum of $1,596.95 after the payment of
intestate’s debts—which amount the
plaintiffs are now seeking to recover
from the administrators sad his securi
ties on his administration bond in the
Courts of this State, of which the de
fendants are residents, as appears on the
face of the plaintiffs declaration and
which was demurred to for want of ju
risdiction. It appears on the face of
the ’plaintiffs declaration that the ad
ministxator, and bis securities, are with
in the jurisdiction of this State, and
that the administrator has in his own
pocket, or is prpsuojetj to have, the sum
of $1,596 95, Oelonging to said estate
which he has wastAd and appropriated
to his own nse, and to which the plain
tiffs are entitled as distributees of the
deceased intestate. In our judgment
the Court erred in sustaining thp defen
dant demurrer fof want of jurisdiction
of the Court and in dismissing the
plaintiff's action. Let the judgment of
the Court below be reversed.
Barnett vs. Yandever. Equity, from
Floyd.
Warner, C. J.
This was a bill filed by the complaint
itnt against Hie defendant praying for a
discovery, account and relief, etc.
The defendant demurred to the com
plainaht’s bill Tor Want of equity. The
Court sustained' the demurrer and dis
missed the bill; whereupon the com
plainant excepted. The grounds of the
complainant’s equity alleged in his bill
are, snbatntiaUy, that he was the owner
of a portable steam engine with all neo-
eesary apparatus for running the same,
together with one plaining and sash
machine, ripsaw, etc., of ths value of
82,000, that said property was levied on
to satisfy an attachment judgment
against complainant, amounting to the
snm of sll6, that complainant was
unable to raise the money to prevent
the sale of said property, and applied
to the defendant to pay’ said debt for
him, when it was agreed between them,
that defendant shonld attend the sale of
said property and bid off the same for
oomplainant, by bidding the amonnt of
said debt therefor, and that complain
ant was to work and ran said engine
and machinery as agent for defendant
until said debt was discharged, or the
defendant should be reimbursed for the
money advanced by him in bidding off
the property; that the defendant attend
ed the sale and bid of the property for
the snm of sll6, and now claims it as
his own property, although the com
plainant has operated said engine and
machinery under said agreement with
defendant, and that it has tnrned out
work fffiarly of the value of S6OO, which
is more than enough to discharge the
amonnt which defendant bid for the
property. In short, the defendant, under
the agreement made with the complain
ant, bid off property worth S2,(XX) for
sll6, and the complainant has run it
with the defendant nntil it has turned
ont work enough to more than reimburse
the defendant for the money which he
bid for the property under the agree
ment, and now defendant claims to be
the owner of the property, under his
bid for it at the sale, under the circum
stances hereinbefore are stated. In onr
judgment, in view of the allegation con
tained in the complainant’s bill, the
defendant should have been required to
answer them as prayed for, and that it
was error in dismissing it on demurrer.
Let the judgment of the Coart below be
reversed.
Gibbons et al., vs. Jones et al., execu
tor. Appeal, from Floyd.
Warner, O. J.
This case came before the Court be
low on an appeal from the Court of Or
dinary of Floyd county. The jury, under
the charge of the Court, found a verdict
in favor of the executors of Samuel Gib
bons, deceased, against the legatees un
der his will, for the snm of $395. A
motion was made for anew trial, on the
several grounds therein set forth, which
was overrnlled by the Coart, and the
legatees excepted. It appears from the
evidence in the record that the execu
tors and legatees had a final settlement
in regard to the estate in their hands,
on the basis of the returns of the execu
tors-to the Court of Ordinary, then be
fore them, and that on the 2d of Jane,
187% the executors turned over to the
legatees (they all being of age), all the
remaining assets in their hands, under
the following written agreement: Geor
gia, Floyd coanty—
Whereas the executors of Samnel
Gibbons, deceased—A. A. Jones and J.
J. Wright—have turned over to ns the
balappe of the property as enumerated
in their second retnrn, made np to the
first day of June, 1873, belonging to the
estate of said deceased, after supplying
to Mrs. L. N. Presley a plantation, for
which they paid to A. Griffeth eight thou
sand dollars, two thousand dollars re
maining yet to be expended in perma
nent improvement, and also after having
supplied to W. S. Gibbons a plantation,
for which they have paid to A. Griffeth
nine thousand five hundred dollars, five
hundred dollars remaining to be expend
ed by them in permaneut improvements:
Now, therefore, in consideration of the
facts above stated, we bind ourselves in
dividually and for each other— first,
that we will supply to our mother such
sums of money as she may need from
time to time, out of the proceeds of the
property turned over to us, and Buoh as
the executors are directed to allow her
under the will.
Second, that W. S. Gibbons will ex-
Send five hundred dollars and Mrs. L.
'. Presley two thousand dollars in
permanent improvements upon their
respective plantations. Witness our
hands and seals, Jane 2, 1873. L. N.
Presley [seal], W. S. Gibbons [seal],
A. R. Gibbous [seal], J. H. Presley
[seal].
After the settlement had been made,
as before stated, and the property and
assets tnrned over to the legatees, the
executors discovered a mistake in their
returns, in which they had omitted to
credit themselves with S4OO, as intrest
on advance payments made by them
for the benefit of the estate. The lega
tees refused to have the returns correc
ted, aDd the executors then made a
statement of the mistake in their retnrn
and filed it with the Ordinary, and cited
the legatees to appear before the Court
of Ordinary and show cause why the
return of the executors, including
the S4OO should not be received as their
final return. The legatees appealed and
contested [the S4OO item in the return,
and also claimed the right to contest
several other items in the return. The
Ordinary overruled all the objections of
the legatees to the executors* retnrn,
and allowed the item for the mistake to
be included therein to the amount of
$395, and rendered a judgment against
the legatees in favor of the executors for
that amonnt. On the appeal trial in the
Superior Court the Court charged the
jury amongst other things “that if from
the evidence they believed the exeon
tors surrendered the assets in their
hands in settlement, and the legatees
accepted them with the foil knowledge
that the settlement made by the exe
cutors, and whioh was there present,
contained the charges for extra com
pensation, attorneys fees, etc., now com
plained of, this amounts to a settle
ment, and the legatees are bound by it.
If from the testimony yon are satisfied
that there was a mistake made, and the
executors overpaid the legatees any
sum, then they are entitled to recover
the amonnt thus overpaid.” This
charge of the Court, in view of the evi
dence contained in the record, was
error. If the settlement was made on
the basis of the exeoqtors returns, as
the same existed when it was made,
and the assets were turned over to the
legatees, then the settlement was bind
ing on all the parties to it. The legatees
cannot be held to be bound by the set
tlement on the basis of the returns then
present, and not the executors, the more
especially as it was the fault and neglect
of the latter if their retqrns were not
complete. If the executors oan go be
hind the settlement and open it for the
purpose of correcting their own mis
takes, then the legatees may go behind
it and attack the returns of the execu
tors, as they proposed to do. If the ex
ecutors desire to bold the legatees bonnd
by the settlement on the basis of their
returns, as the same existed at the time
the settlement was made, they oan do
so by dismissing their proceedings to
have their returns corrected, but if the
settlement is to be opened for that par
pose, then it will be open for the lega
tees to oentest their returns, or any part
thereof, as they proposed to do, before
the Ordinary. All the parties should
be bound by the settlement on the basis
of the returns, as the same existed at
the time the settlement was made, or
none of them should be bound by it.
Let the judgment of the Court belqw be
reversed.
