§58-348.
   
   If the executor or administrator doubts the correctness of any claim
   presented to him, he may enter into an agreement, in writing, with the
   claimant, to refer the matter in controversy to some disinterested
   person, to be approved by the judge of the county court. Upon filing
   the agreement, and approval of the judge of the county court, in the
   office of the clerk of the district court for the county or judicial
   subdivision in which the letters testamentary or of administration
   were granted, the clerk must, either in vacation or in term, enter a
   minute of the order referring the matter in controversy to the person
   so selected; or if the parties consent, a reference may be had in the
   county court; and the report of the referee, if confirmed, establishes
   or rejects the claim, the same as if it had been allowed or rejected
   by the executor or administrator and the county judge.
