Upon the delivery of any property to the treasurer, as provided in § 7-14-5 , he must, if it be money, place it to the credit of the county; or, if it be other property, he must within thirty days sell it at public auction, upon reasonable notice, and place the proceeds to the credit of the county. If the money in the treasury be demanded within six years by the legal representatives of the decedent, the treasurer must pay it to them, after deducting the fees and expenses of the coroner and of the county in relation to the matter; or it may be paid at any time thereafter upon the order of the board of county commissioners.
