61A Personal liability of legal representative or trustee
The legal representative or trustee of the will of the deceased person
who was registered as the holder of shares not fully paid up in any
incorporated company may distribute the assets of the estate of the
deceased person as soon as the legal representative or trustee has
procured the registration of some other person as the holder of the
shares without reserving any portion of the estate for the payment of
any calls made after the date of the registration whether made by the
company or its directors or by its liquidators in a winding-up, but this
section does not affect any right which the company or its liquidator
may have to follow the assets of the deceased person into the hands
of any persons amongst whom the same have been distributed or who
have received the same.
