§58-129.
Any person interested may contest the petition by filing written
opposition thereto, on the ground of the incompetency of the
applicant, or may, at any time within thirty (30) days after an
administrator has been appointed, assert his own rights to the
administration and pray that letters be issued to himself. In the
latter case the contestant must file his petition in the court. The
court thereof shall set a day for hearing the same and the contestant
shall give written notice by mail, postage prepaid, to the known heirs
and the original petitioner or administrator, if the appointment has
been made, of said contest, and the time and place set for hearing the
same, at least five (5) days before said hearing.
