Per Curiam. There can be no doubt but that the de» fendant has paid those fees on account of his intestate’s estate; and, as he could not do without the aid of counsel, whose conduct he could not regulate, he should be allowed the sums he has paid. The Court, in giving this opinion, is supported by the opinion of the former Chancellor, as ap» pears by his notes in this very case.
