that all the assets, both real and personal, should be turned over to the
Commissioner in Equity for Marlborough County; that he should sell such assets
and apply the proceeds to the payment of the debts of said intestate.

his death was seized and possessed of about three hundred acres of land
adjoining the lands of the estate of Malcom

this State. and that the residue or balance may be paid to the officer or other
