Description

This case arises in the administration of the estate of Mrs. Belle H. Tilghman, who died on March 5, 1931, and relates indirectly to the estates of her father and mother, Dr. Samuel A. Harrison, who died in 1890, and his widow, who died in 1909. Mrs. Tilghman's will was probated and her executors qualified on March 17, 1932. Appellant filed claims against the estate in the Orphans Court. In 1934 appellees filed a bill in equity against appellant for construction of the will. Appellant filed an answer, and a year later an amended answer, and in 1936 appellees filed a replication. In 1938 appellees filed another bill against appellant, asking the court to assume jurisdiction over the estate, in consolidation with the previous Equity case, and for completion of the administration and distribution of the estate and construction of the will. Appellant consented to assumption of jurisdiction and reaffirmed his claim. The court consolidated the two cases, assumed jurisdiction of the administration, and referred the proceedings to an auditor to state audits in conformity with the respective contentions of the parties. Nothing was done before the auditor. In 1947 hearings were had, the court filed an opinion and on January 2, 1948 filed a supplementary memorandum and a decree, from which appellant appealed to this court. On June 17, 1948, we filed our opinion, affirming in part and reversing in part the decree below, and remanding the case for further proceedings. Tilghman v. Frazer, 191 Md. 132, 59 A.2d 781. In response to an application by appellant for a further statement as to the construction of the will, on October 6, 1948 we filed a supplemental opinion, 191 Md. 153, 62 A.2d 596.
