representative, and shall designate how the same shall be applied to the payment of debts
and claims; also in what order of priority the claims shall bet paid and also what sum shall be
reserved to pay contingent or unliquidated claims and claims not matured, or a proportion of
any such claim equal to what is allowed to other creditors of the same class, when payment
of such claims shall become proper. Such report shall also show what persons are entitled to
share in the estate as legatees, and as such in what property or amounts; or as distributees,
