  2. Title 58

When any bond has been executed and delivered, under the

provisions of the preceding section, and it is necessary for the

settlement of the estate to require the payment of any part of the

money thereby secured, the executor or administrator must petition

the court for an order requiring the payment, and have a citation

issued and served on the party bound, requiring him to appear and

show cause why the order should not be made. At the hearing, the

court, if satisfied of the necessity of such payment, must make an

order accordingly, designating the amount and giving a time within

which it must be paid. If the money be not paid within the time

allowed, an action may be maintained by the executor or

administrator on the bond.
