Bequest to executor or another debtor of his debt
Official statutory text
The discharge or bequest in a will of any debt or demand of the
testator against the executor named, or any other person, is not
valid against the creditors of the decedent, but is a specific
bequest of the debt or demand. It must be included in the
inventory, and, if necessary, applied in the payment of the debts.
If not necessary for that purpose, it must be paid in the same
manner and proportion as other specific legacies.
