  • The judge of probate must, within three months after the receipt thereof, pay to the treasurer all moneys he may receive under the provisions of this chapter, and, failing so to do, he is liable as a defaulter and also forfeits $300.00, one half to the state, and the other half to any one suing for the same; and, on the trial, the certificate of the treasurer is presumptive evidence of his failure to make such payment.
