demand is made of the garnishee upon the execution, in any of the cases mentioned in
sections 52-389, 52-390 and 52-391, within the periods therein specified, the garnishee
may pay the debt, or deliver the legacy or distributive share, so attached, to the officer

in so doing, he shall be credited for such payment or delivery to the officer, in his
administration account.
