The court below was not bound by the opinions of the professional witnesses as to the value of the services rendered by the attorney for the administratrix, and as to the proper amount to be' allowed therefor. The court was authorized to compare its own judgment as to such value with the opinions of the witnesses, and make such allowance as should be just. (Head v. Hargrave, 105 U. S. 45; Anthony v. Stinson, 4 Kan. 211.)
The court charged the administratrix with a cash balance of $7,611.57. We see no error in this. The court permitted her to retain $2,930 for payment of expenses of administration. This left $4,681.57 with which to pay a dividend on claims. The court ordered a dividend of twenty-five per cent to be paid on claims, and in giving the names of claimants and the amounts to be paid for each, the aggregate is a trifle over $5,100. We apprehend that some confusion may have arisen in the clerical work of stating the amounts to be paid, and therefore the cause is remanded, with instructions to make such corrections as will make the aggregate of the sums to be paid as dividends not to exceed $4,681.57, and in all other respects the order and decree are affirmed.
Hearing in Bank denied.
