And it is absurd that the seller shall become the purchaser : to whom shall he give bond and sureties as required by the act? \u2014 Surely not to himself; much less to-to the sheriff who is only an instrument and has no interest. The goods yet remain part of the intestates\u2019 estate, arid an execution issued against his assets in the hands of his administrators would attach upon them. An administrator or executor as such can no otherwise become entitled to the goods of his testator than by paying their value to-creditors, as stated in the boric cited.\nVerdict and Judgment foi defendant.-",

A fter the purchase Boatwell died and she married Reynell, who in her right detained the articles so purchased by Boatwell, alledg-ing that an aministrator could no otherwise acquire a property in any articles belonging to the estate of his intestate than by paying the value to a creditor, which here he had not done.\nThe defendant\u2019s counsel cited office of executor, 89."
