ESTATES OF DECEDENTS, § 494.1 — when decree for plaintiffs in action against executor-trustees and others, and order finding executor-trustees guilty of contempt, will be reversed. Under circumstances, held that decree for plaintiffs, in action based on children's disputes relative to acts connected with their testate mother's long unsettled estate, complaint in which action charged misconduct on part of two of children as executors and trustees under mother's will, as result of which alleged misconduct mother's estate allegedly had been wasted to detriment of plaintiffs, would be reversed and cause would be remanded with directions for entry of decree in conformity with views expressed in opinion of Appellate Court, and such reasonable orders to executor-trustee children as would bring about most prudent and expeditious termination of estate, and, further, that order, whereby executor-trustee children were committed to jail as for contempt in failing to file account within given time, would be reversed.
