    "head_matter": "In re Estate of Wolf Freilich, Deceased. Eva Freilich, Individually and as Executrix, Appellant, v. Moses Freilich and Celia Schonfeld, Appellees.\nGen. No. 21,352.\n(Not to he reported in full.)\nAppeal from the Circuit Court of Cook county; the Hon. John McNutt, Judge, presiding. Heard in the Branch Appellate Court at the March term, 1915.\nReversed and remanded.\nOpinion filed March 28, 1916.\nStatement of the Case.\nAppeal from an order in the Circuit Court affirming, in effect, an order of the Probate Court directing Eva Freilich, as executrix of the last will and testament of Wolf Freilich, deceased, to pay out of funds in her hands, to two legatees under the will, $1,500 each, on account of their legacies thereunder. When it was made in the Probate Court it appeared that the executrix had in her hands $14,459.70, that the uncollected accounts of the estate weye deemed worthless and that there were pending claims against the estate amounting to $4,495.10. It also appeared that executrix had not been allowed any compensation for her services as such executrix, nor fees for her counsel. The circuit judge, on the proof before him, estimated that the latter might equal $1,700, and from the showing of record her compensation as executrix might aggregate, on a full statutory allowance, $7,560. The record indicated that her services as executrix extended over a considerable period and involved handling numerous transactions and large sums of money,' aggregating over $125,000, incident to closing out a merchandise business, collecting the accounts and paying the creditors.\nElijah N. Zoline, for appellant; Morris K, Levinson, of counsel.\nAbstract of the Decision.\nExecutors and administrators, \u00a7 340*\u2014when order directing payment of legacies premature. Order of Probate Court directing executrix to pay two legacies of $1,500 each, held premature where executrix had not been allowed compensation for her services or fees for her counsel, and it appearing that the funds on hand amounted to $14,459.70, that there were claims pending against the estate aggregating $4,495.10, and that executrix\u2019s compensation, on a full statutory allowance, might aggregate $7,560.\nNewman, Poppenhusen & Stern, for appellees; Edward R.
