ART. 93] INVENTORY AND LIST OF DEBTS. 2103

truth annexed, an inventory of the money of the deceased which he
hath collected belonging to the deceased, or received in discharge of
debts due to the deceased.

1904. art. 03. sec. 215. 1SSS, art. 93. sec. 213. 1860, art. 93. sec. 213. 1798, ch. 101,

sub-ch. C, sec. 30.

216. Whenever personal property of any kind, or assets not men-
tioned in any inventory already made, shall come to the possession or
knowledge of an administrator or collector, an account or inventory of
the same shall be returned, appraised by two respectable disinterested
sworn appraisers appointed by any justice of the peace or judge of the
orphans' court, within two calendar mouths from the time of the dis-
covery.

Where a creditor claims that property belonging to a decedent is not
included in the inventory, Ills remedy is to file a petition against the admin-
istrator. Fowler v. Brady, 110 Md. 210.

. Ibid. sec. 210. 1888. art. 93, sec. 214. 1860. art. 93, sec. 214. 1798, ch. 101.

sub-ch. 6, sec. 11.

217. In case an inventory be returned by a collector duly appointed,
the administrator thereafter administering shall, within three months
after the date of the letters, either return a new inventory in place of
the collector's inventory or an acknowledgment in writing that he has
received from the collector the articles contained in the first inventory,
or consent to be answerable for tho samp as if the said inventory had
been made out after his administering upon the estate; but nothing
herein contained shall be construed to render an administrator answer-
able for not making a return of the inventory aforesaid, when it shall
appear to the court that he has been prevented from making such return
by the improper detention of the goods of the deceased by the collector.

ibid. sec. 217. 1888. art. 93. sec. 215. 1860. art. 93, sec. 215. 1798, ch. 101.

sub-ch. 6, sec. 13.

218. If an executor or administrator shall not, within three months
after the date of his letters, exhibit to the orphans' court an inventory
as aforesaid, a summons returnable within not less than eight nor more
than thirty days, may, ex officio, or on the application of a person
interested, be issued against such administrator, to show cause where-
fore such inventory hath not been exhibited; and if the summons be
duly returned "summoned," or upon two citations returned "non est"
by the sheriff of the county wherein the party resided at the time of
obtaining his letters, or of the county wherein the letters were obtained,
in case the party doth not reside in the State, and if he doth not appear
at the return of the summons, or appearing, shall not show cause satis-
factory, the court may immediately enter on its proceedings and record
that the letters be revoked, and may proceed to grant other letters in
the same manner as if such executor had not been named in the will,
or as if such administrator was not in existence; and the power of such
executor or administrator shall thereupon cease, and he shall be bound
