Ia \ S 2 a ] A G ‘U O S p l A e g cr 6 l W. READE JOHNSON ATTORNEY AT LAW REYNOLDS BUILDING WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. March 29, 1944 Mr. Carl G. Smith Clerk Superior Court Statesville, N.C. Re: DAVIDSON, Estate of Sylvesta Dear Mr. Smith: I wish you would be kind enough to advise me concerning the name of the surety on the bond of R. G. Watts, Administrator in the above estate. I have examined the final account filed in this case and find that it cost 21.2287 per cent to administer same. I think it was the duty of the Administrator under the statute to determine who the heirs were and pay the surplus of the estate to said heirs before filins his final account. I think it was your duty to require him to do this. I think further that the petition filed by Wr. Benbow should be sufficient to satisfy you or the Administrator that Henry Davidson was and is the ouly heir at law of Sylvesta Davidson. If after the estete has cost 21.2287 per cent it is to be subjected to further cost and expense in order to have it paid to the only heir at law, it will be my purpose to meke the Administrator the surety on his bond and you as Clerk, parties defendant, and in doing so lI purpose to attack the reasonbleness of the expendities of the Administrator and the good faith of your office in authorizing them in order that the whole matter may be reviewed in the Superior Court. You allowed an Attorney's fee of $125.00 and allowed the Administrator to charge commissions on the Attorney's fees. I believe that the court will hold that this fee was unreasonable in the lizht of the value of the estate and the amount of work involved by the Attorney as reflected in the final report and certainly it was irregular to permit the Administrator to charge commissions on the Attorney's fees. If however, we can satisfy your office by petition, affidavit or otherwise that Henry Davidson is the only heir at law and next of kin of Sylvesta Davidson to the end that you will pay to him the asount of $451.32 without further court cost and expense, we are willing to let the final report stand. Trusting that I may hear from you promptly, I am April 1, 19h) Mre We Reade Johnson, Attorney Reynolds Building Winston-Salem, N. C, RE; SYLVESTER DAVIDSON, ESTATE Dear Sirs This will acknowledge receipt of your letter in rgard to the above entitled mabter, The names of the surety on the bond of R G Watts, Adminis- trator of this estate are; C W Watt andT s White, If your cliant desires to file exceptions to the report of the Administrator and wants to be heard on the matter I will be glad to set a date and go into the matter, If your cliart has evidence to present to show that the ex- perditures are unreasonable I will be glad to hear the matter, I think the Administrator 1s perfectily within the Statute in paying the money into this office, as provided in seCe 8 of the N.C. Code. I do not think that the peti- tion filed by Mr. Benbow 1s sufficient to comply with the Statute and for my protection in disbursing these funds, As stated to you on telephone I will require that a ace tion be instituted in the Superior Court and an issue sube mitted to the Jury determining who the heirs at law are of the deceased. The Administrator would have had to fole low the same procedure in determining the heirs so the cost would have been the same, if you @ee#Péon my good faith in this matter and desire to bring an action against me on this ground, then the only thing for you to do is to proceed with your suit, but if the Court holds that I am right in my procedure then I expect to ask the Court to allow my attorney a fee,from the funds in hand, for defending the action.
