Court never determined whether there was a specific or general devise of the property in question, indicating that Probate Court approval pursuant to § 33-12-6 is not required for either type of devise where the will contains express authority to sell the property. Thus, the only express requirement for the sale of property by an executrix holding a testamentary power of sale is enumerated in § 33-12-6, where the conveyance of specifically devised property requires the written consent of the specific devisee.
