Mississippi Supreme Court October 15, 1891 (Red v. Powers)

Campbell, C. J.,

delivered the opinion of the court.

By accepting the provisions of the will and entering upon the enjoyment of the estate given to him by it, the appellant became the debtor of Mr. Sample for the $200 to be paid to him annually, and might be sued at law for the money. This is affirmed by many cases cited in note k, 3 Williams on Executors, p. 1931.
