1. “The trustee takes no title to exempt property. His only power over it is to value it and set it aside. The bankruptcy court has no jurisdiction to administer it otherwise without the bankrupt's consent. On the other hand, the bankrupt has no right to demand an exemption in cash . . . If indivisible town realty must be sold in order to sever the homestead, the cash arising from the sale must be invested . .. And investment is required if the estate be in cash to begin with . . . `In no case shall the allowance of cash without such investment be a valid exemption.' [Code § 51-601].
