The naming of a person as personal representative in a will does not operate as a discharge of any just receivable or demand which was due the testator from that person, but the receivable or demand must be included in the inventory and the person named as personal representative is liable for it when it becomes due, unless it is proved that the personal representative had not, then or thereafter, any means with which to pay the receivable or demand, or such part as may remain unpaid, and that the inability did not arise from any fraud committed by the personal representative, but any commissions allowed must be applied toward payment of the receivable or demand.
