administratrix of the estate, commissioners to
appraise the estate and to pass on the claims
against the estate were duly appointed, and plaintiffs

house when the receiver was appointed.
The attachment was dissolved and the receiver
discharged, and he was ordered to return the
property to defendants.
Judgment was given for the plaintiffs to recover from
defendant administratrix the sum of P8,555.78 with
interest which, added to the principal, brought the
amount to P11,392.99 with 10 per cent interest on
that sum till paid.
