Opinion

Per Curiam:

It is a well-recognized rule, both at law and in equity, that the whole personal éstate of a deceased person vests in the executor or administrator. There is no fact in this case to take it out of the general rule. The decedent left a widow and a posthumous child at the time of his death, and he was also indebted. The heirs could not therefore distribute the property at their pleasure among themselves without administration. Roumfort v. Mc-Alarney, 82 Pa. 193.'

Judgment affirmed.
