¶2The petitioners admit that they are transferees and that each received property of a value in excess of the total amount of the deficiencies. They raise no question as to the correctness of the deficiencies asserted. Their contentions are that the period within which assessment of the 1921 tax could have been made had expired when the notice of the deficiency was mailed to them on March 8,
¶31927, and that only a pro rata share of the deficiency should be asserted against each of them.

(c) For the purposes of this section, if the taxpayer is deceased, or in the case of a corporation, has terminated its existence, the period of limitation for assessment against the taxpayer shall be the period that would be in effect had the death or termination of existence not occurred.
¶5Jacob Spahn’s return for 1921 was filed March 15,1922. The four-year period for assessment of the taxes for that year provided by section 250 (d) of the Revenue Act of 1921 and subsequent revenue acts expired March 15, 1926.
¶6Under the provisions of section 280, the period of limitation for assessment of the taxpayer’s liability against the transferees expired *169March 15, 1927, one year after the expiration of the period of limitation for assessment against the taxpayer. The assessment for 1921 was not barred at the time the notice of March 8, 1927, was mailed to the transferees. See J. H. Johnson et al., 19 B. T. A. 840.
