Sureties.

SEO. 1. If any security or any counter security of an executor
or administrator, or any person interested in the estate of any
such security or counter security, shall conceive himself in
danger of suffering from the securityship, he may apply to the
Orphans' Court which granted the administration, and the said
court may require the party to give counter security, to be
approved by the court, and if the party when so required shall
not, within a reasonable time fixed by the court, give such coun-
ter security, the court may revoke his letters and appoint a new
administrator; and if the administrator whose letters are re-
voked shall not, within a reasonable time to be fixed by the
court, deliver over to such new administrator all the property of
the decedent remaining in his hands unadministered, and also all
the books, bonds, notes and evidences of debt, which belong to
or are due to the decedent, or which have been by him taken as
executor or administrator since the death of the decedent in his
possession, and also pay over to such new administrator all the
money due by him as executor or administrator of the decedent,
the court may compel the delivery and payment over by attach-
ment and sequestration of property, and may also direct the
administration bond of such executor or administrator to be put
in suit.

2. The several Orphans' Courts may call upon any executor or
administrator to whom they may respectively have granted
administration to give new security, approved by said courts;
and if such executor or administrator shall refuse or neglect to
give such new security within a fixed reasonable time, the court
may revoke his letters and appoint a new administrator; if the
executor or administrator whose letters have been revoked shall
refuse or neglect, in a reasonable time after demand, to deliver
over to such new administrator the property of his decedent in
his hands unadministered, the court may compel the same by
attachment and sequestration, and may direct his administration
bond to be put in suit.
