An order of revivor and supplement may be made as of course under the 15th & 16th Viet. c. 86, s. 52, with the addition "that the personal representatives may admit assets in Chambers or account."

Mr. W. W. Cooper, for the Plaintiff, said that such [458] an order had been refused in The Dean of Ely v.
