Appeal from the Circuit Court of Oregon County. — Hon. John E. Duncan, Special Judge.
REVERSED AND REMANDED.
V.E. Willis and H.L. Songer for appellant.
H.D. Green and A.W. Landis for respondent.
This is an appeal from a judgment of the circuit court dismissing an appeal from the Probate Court of Oregon County. The probate court had overruled exceptions to an annual settlement filed in said court by R.S. Hogan, guardian of a war veteran.
The facts are simple. Clarence C. Boles is a veteran of the United States Army. He was adjudged insane by the Probate Court of Oregon County, Missouri in September, 1922, and Dora Boles, his mother, qualified as his guardian in said court and acted as his guardian until in August, 1930, when she resigned, and R.S. Hogan was appointed at that time and has been the duly acting guardian since his appointment.
The record before us is rather incomplete, but from compensation and insurance, one or both, due Clarence C. Boles, the guardian had received and had in his possession on August 11, 1931, $12,518.04 belonging to the veteran. The record before us does not show what amount of this, if any, was received from the former guardian at the time of Hogan's appointment, nor does the record show what amount had been received by him within the year preceding the annual settlement in question, but the exceptions state that "Clarence C. Boles is now receiving and for a number of years has received benefits from the Veterans Bureau, now the Veterans Administration, and that this estate was derived in this manner."
In his annual settlement filed in the probate court on August 11, 1931, R.S. Hogan as guardian took credit for and charged the estate with five per cent of $12,518.04 as his commission, amounting to $625.90.
On February 1, 1932, the Federal Administration through its attorney filed in the probate court the following exceptions to the charge of the guardian, caption and signature omitted:
