sub-ch. 8, sec. 16.

101. In all cases where an administrator is to make payment
or distribution amongst the creditors of his decedent, he may
give notice three successive weeks previously in some con-
venient newspaper, of the time and place for making it; and in
case the creditor shall not attend in person or by agent or
attorney to receive the amount or proportionable part of his'
claim, all interest on such claim, or proportionable part, shall
cease from that time; provided that the administrator shall at
any time thereafter, on demand, pay the said claim or propor-
tionable part to the party, his agent .or attorney duly author-
ized; and whenever the administrator shall proceed to make an
additional payment or dividend, he may advertise as aforesaid,
and interest shall stop as aforesaid; and if, at any additional
dividend, a just claim, established as hereinbefore directed,
shall be exhibited, the creditor shall be entitled to such sum as
will place him on equal footing with those who have already
received a dividend.

Ibid. sec. 103. 1860, art. 93, sec. 104. 1798, ch 101, sub-ch. 8, sec. 10.

102. It shall be the duty of an administrator to pay all
just claims against his decedent'exhibited to him, or a just
proportionable part thereof, according to the assets; and if any
claim be known to him (although the same be not exhibited) he
shall retain the some, or a just proportionable part for the bene-
fit of the creditor; provided he can satisfy the court that such
claim is just or may probably be recovered; and when it is
certain there is a claim of a person out of the State, but the
amount thereof cannot be ascertained, the court may allow such
sum as it may think proper to be retained to be accounted for,
nevertheless, if within three years after the death of the
deceased no demand shall be made by the creditor or his rep-
resentatives and suit brought on the rejection thereof by the
administrator; and from the time of making paymert to or divi-
dend amongst the creditors as herein directed, all interest on
such claim or proportionable part thereof shall cease; provided
that the administrator shall pay or tender the same, together
