Those  proceeds  are deemed property of the same nature as the estate or   interest sold until the infant arrives at full age or  the  incompetency   is  removed.  The  proceeds  of the release of a possibility of reverter   shall be deemed and treated as if they were proceeds of real property of   which the infant was seized and possessed.  If  the  incompetent  person   dies  after the sale, having specifically devised the property sold, the   provisions of section thirty-six of the decedent estate law shall  apply   to the devise.
