§58-394.
   
   The person paying, delivering, transferring, or issuing personal
   property or the evidence thereof to the successor or successors named
   in the affidavit is discharged and released to the same extent as if
   the person dealt with a personal representative of the decedent. Such
   person is not required to inquire into the truth of any statement in
   the affidavit. If any person to whom an affidavit is delivered refuses
   to pay, deliver, transfer, or issue any personal property or evidence
   thereof, it may be recovered or its payment, delivery, transfer, or
   issuance compelled upon proof of their right in a proceeding brought
   for the purpose by or on behalf of the persons entitled thereto. Any
   person to whom payment, delivery, transfer, or issuance is made is
   answerable and accountable therefor to any personal representative of
   the estate or to any other person having a superior right.
