1Opinion of the Court

MOUTON, Judge.

Esco Davis died in Washington parish in April, 1933, leaving a small estate.

Cora. Lee Davis, defendant, his surviving widow, was appointed administratrix of his succession June 28, 1933.

An inventory was taken of the estate which was advertised for sale to pay debts.

This sale was enjoined by plaintiff, Gladys May Dixon, as the sole surviving heir of Esco Davis.

Among various grounds constituting her complaint, plaintiff alleges that the appointment of defendant as administratrix is null, because she failed to furnish bond, as such, in ten days as prescribed by law.
