Statement of the Case.

Petition to review a widow’s award under Administration Act, sec. 75 (J. & A. 124), filed by the Continental & Commercial National Bank of Chicago. From an order of the Probate Court reducing the award from $2,500 to $2,000, the widow, Cora S. Mulliken, appealed to the Circuit Court, where judgment of nihil capiat and for costs was entered against her, from which she appeals.

Charles S. Cullen, for appellant Cora S. Mulliken; Hiram T. Gilbert, of counsel.

Mayer, Meyer, Austrian & Platt, for appellee Continental & Commercial National Bank.

*264Abstract of the Decision.

Executors and administrators, § 196 * — when petition to review widow’s award is too late. A delay of 20 months on the part of a creditor whose claim was allowed prior to the widow’s award is so unreasonable as to require the dismissal of a petition to review the award under Administration Act, sec. 75 ,(J. & A. H 124).
