No. l4-To regulate the collection OF clair

RIr. HORN regarded the bill as making the Gle

Parties however have to 50 to the CLERK to get te
accounts s'allowedr before the administrator Is q
thorised TO pay them. Tho tax imposed upon
lates to pay Clerks for their services, he consd'
ed burdensome and unnecessary, and taking FRI
widows and children what they could lily spa
For this reason he hoped the bill would be ri sct'
Mr.. STOKES. Under the present law, the les
tees and distributes Of an estate have RENE
against the administrator if he improperly pay
r claim. he would inquire whether, under this b
they voali have such remedy against the Clerk
improperly allowing account, the sdministrs
being required to pay all accounts allowed by
Clerk
MIR. PETERS. TIE bill confers upon the Gle
the power to allow az account only after it has be
regularly probated, and then the administrator
required to pay il.
Mr.. STOKES. Then the responsibility would
upon the administrator if an account should be
properly paid.
