"Wood, J.,
(after stating the facts). The court erred in dismissing the appeal. The statute provides: “Any person interested as heir, legatee or creditor may file exceptions to such account, or any item thereof, on or before the second day of the term of said court to which such account may be continued; and, if exceptions are not filed within the time specified, such account shall be examined and confirmed as hereinbefore provided, and such account when confirmed shall never thereafter be subject to investigation, unless in a court of chancery,” etc. Kirby’s Digest, section 140.
