If a party interested in the estate offers to give bond to the contingent creditor, with sufficient surety or sureties for the payment of the claim in case it shall be proved to be due, the probate court may accept a bond instead of requiring assets to be deposited as provided in § 33-11-9. But nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prevent any party holding the contingent claim from waiting until its right of action accrues, and then bringing suit against the heirs, devisees, legatees or next of kin, as provided in this chapter.
