Decedent died testate in Cook County, Illinois, April 23, 1915, and in October, 1915, the inheritance tax was entered, assessing a total of $6,823.11, which less 5% equals $6,481.96, paid into County Treasury by the executor. ■ Certain contingencies under section 25 Inheritance Tax Law existing in said estate happened whereby the Court later determined and assessed a total tax of $4,820.03 less 5%, to-wit: $4,-579.03 being actual amount due the State. The difference between said sum and amount actually paid being $1,902.94 it is found the sum of $1,902.94 with 3% interest per annum from October 23, 1915, should be refunded to claimants, which we accordingly award to claimants jointly.
