Indicates Matter Stricken
Indicates New Matter

The House assembled at 2:00 P.M.

Deliberations were opened with prayer by the Chaplain of the House of Representatives, the Rev. Dr. Alton C. Clark as follows:

Our Father God, without Whose guidance our best effort is folly, give to us such a measure of faith in You that we will be victors in life, not victims of it. Save us from being less effective because of ingratitude or pettiness, and from turning coward in the day of battle. As stewards of so many blessings from Your good and gracious hand, give us, we pray, a dauntless trust, a firm hope, an understanding charity, and a determination to stand firm for the right. Make us to know always that the master key to unlock the door to unending happiness is a clear conscience.

Hear us in this our humble prayer. Amen.

Pursuant to Rule 6.3, the House of Representatives was led in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America by the SPEAKER.

/(a) As to claims presented in the manner described in Section 3-804 within the time limit prescribed in Section 3-803, the personal representative may mail a notice to any claimant stating that the claim has been disallowed. If, after allowing or disallowing a claim, the personal representative changes his decision concerning the claim, he shall notify the claimant. The personal representative may not change a disallowance of a claim after the time for the claimant to file a petition for allowance or to commence a proceeding on the claim has run and the claim has been barred. Every claim which is disallowed in whole or in part by the personal representative is barred so far as not allowed unless the claimant files a petition for allowance in the court or commences a proceeding against the personal representative not later than thirty days after the mailing of the notice of disallowance or partial allowance if the notice warns the claimant of the impending bar. Failure of the personal representative to mail notice to a claimant of action on his claim for thirty days after the time for original presentation of the claim has expired has the effect of a notice of disallowances with the warning of the impending bar./
