Whyler v. Van Tiger

Guardian—Execution of Lease Before Receiving Letters.— Where a mother was appointed guardian of the person and estate of her minor son, and on tne same day presented her bond, which was approved, a lease made by her of the ward’s property on the following day was held valid, though no letters of guardianship had been issued to her, and she had not taken the oath of oflice.1

Guardian—Lease in Individual Name.—A lease purporting to be made by one tenant in common in her own right, and as the guardian of the estate of her cotenant and ward, is valid, although signed and delivered as her individual deed.
