LAW SUPREME COURT.-SITTINGS IN BANCO.

Friday, 29th May, 1863.
Before Sir Valentino Fleming, Knt., Chief Justice, and Sir Francis Smith, Knt., Pusine Judge.
In re Ann Hampton (an infant).

The Attorney-General applied on affidavit to have Mr. Alexander Finlay, a magistrate of the territory, appointed guardian of the person of Ann Hampton,

an infant 12 years of age. The father of the infant, Thomas Hampton, died intestate on the 24th November 1859, leaving personal estate of the value of .£1,110 14s. 2d., and real estate of the value of £75; which were now in the hands of the Curator of Intestate Estates. The application had previously been made in chambers, and was then adjourned in consequence of its being opposed by the mother of the infant, who desired to be ap- pointed guardian herself. He (the learned counsel) now produced an affidavit of consent on the part of the mother. He had further to apply that a sufficient sum for the maintenance of the infant be made payable from the funds above mentioned. The object of the application was that the infant should be placed in a respectable boarding school and the sum proposed to be allowed for this purpose was £80 per annum.

Their Honors expressed a belief that half the probable income of the infant viz £70 per year would suffice for her maintenance. They assented to the vesting of the guardianship in Mr. Finlay subject to an amendment of the affidavit of consent and also to the payment of £70 a-year for maintenance from the date of the order.
