1Opinion of the Court
FAHY, Circuit Judge.
Rose Kalis, the appellant, brought an action in the District Court against the executor of the estate of Annie A. Kilroy, deceased, for services as companion and nurse. She alleged the decedent promised to take care of her, implying that some provision to that effect would be made in her will, which was not done. The trial judge granted the motion of the executor to dismiss the complaint on the ground the action was barred by § 18-518 of the D.C. Code (1940), as amended June 24, 1949, 1 because not filed within three months after the executor had rejected the claim.
