Estates op Deceased Persons—Family Allowance from Solvent Estate—Conclusiveness op Order.—A final order granting a widow a family allowance from the solvent estate of her deceased husband, made after the filing of the inventory, as provided by section 1466 of the Code of Civil Procedure, is conclusive in favor of her right to receive the amount directed to be paid to her, so long as the order remains in force.

Id.—Change in Conditions op Estate—Modification of Order.— Where there has been a change in the circumstances of the estate, or in the relation of the parties, the court may modify the order in accordance with the altered conditions, but, until such modification is made, the order retains its force as a judgment.

Id.—Order op Modipication cannot Operate Retroactively.—The court cannot make its order of modification operate retroactively so as to cut off the right of the widow to the allowance which had actually accrued under the original order.

Id.—Partial Distribution—Delay in Demanding Payment is not Forpeiture of Allowance.—The widow, after a partial distribution of the estate had been made to herself and others, did not forfeit her right to further payments of the allowance, by her mere delay in demanding the same.

Id.—Reduction of Allowance from Five Hundred Dollars to Fifty Dollars a Month—Discretion not Abused.—Where an estate .originally of the value of almost six hundred thousand dollars, is partially distributed, so as to leave in the possession of the executors property of the value of about seven thousand six hundred dollars, of which upward of one thousand six hundred dollars is then due the widow for accrued family allowance, it is not an abuse of discretion for the court to reduce the allowance, which was originally fixed at five hundred dollars a month, to the sum of fifty dollars a ' month.
