Where a Will is propounded and an application for removal of an executor is made under Section 301, that application can only be made by a beneficiary or legatee who accepts the Will. It cannot be made by a person who seeks to dislodge the Will or contests the application for probate or Letters of Administration with Will Annexed. The application for removal posits the acceptance of a Will.
