When the time prescribed by the will for the performance of a condition
has elapsed, without the condition having been performed, and the executor or administrator has
thereupon, without fraud, distributed the assets; in such case, if further time has been allowed under
section 137 for the performance of the condition, and the condition has been performed accordingly, the
legacy cannot be claimed from the executor or administrator, but those to whom he has paid it are liable
to refund the amount.
