208 HIGH COURT OF CHANCERY.
to be invested and secured under the direction of this court,
and that the award may be established, as well against the com-
plainant, as his children, and their trustees.
The arbitration bonds were filed as exhibits with the answer,
and their recitals are fully set out in the opinion of the Chan-
