1949Co. v. Butler, 56 Texas 506 , where the court had previously quoted from Pomeroy on Remedies to the effect that the beneficiaries are not necessary parties where a third party brings a suit to nullify or set aside the trust deed, for the reason that “the trustees themselves are sufficient to represent and defend all the interests of those who claim under the trust.” The statement made by Pomeroy was not necessary to the decision in the case where it was originally quoted, because there it was held that the evidence showed that no persons were omitted as parties who had any beneficial interest.
