or money made, or purported to be made by the Com mittee or the prescribed person in good faith in
pursuance of section 193, section 194 or section 195 shall be valid and shall be a full discharge to the
Committee or the prescribed person, as the case may be, and to the Government from all further
liability in respect of that money or property ; but nothing herein contained shall affect the right of
any exe cutor or administrator or other representative, or of any creditor of the deceased officer or
warrant officer against any person to whom such payment or delivery has been made.
197. Property in the hands of the Committee or the prescribed person not to be assets at the
place where the Committee or the prescribed person is stationed. Any property coming under
section 193 into the hands of the Committee or the prescribed person shall not, by reason of so
coming, be deemed to be assets or effects at the place in which that Committee or the prescribed
person is stationed and it shall not be necessary by reason thereof that representation be taken out in
respect of that property for that place.
198. Saving of rights of representative. After the Committee has deposited with the prescribed
person the surplus of the property of any deceased officer or warrant officer under subsection (6) of
section 193, any representative of the deceased shall, as regards any property of the deceased not
collected by the Committee and not forming part of the aforesaid surplus, have the same rights and
duties as if section 193 had not been enacted.
199. Application of sections 193 to 198 to lunatics etc. The provisions of sections 193 to 198
shall, so far as they can be made applicable, apply in the case of an officer or warrant officer who,
notwithstanding anything contained in the Lunacy Act, 1912 (IV of 1912), is ascertained in the
prescribed manner to be insane, or, who, being on active service, is officially reported missing, as if
he had died on the day on which his insanity is so ascertained or, as the case may be, on the day on
which he is officially reported missing:
