““The order which may be entered is either for the admission to probate of the will, or the denial thereof. If the former, such order may be attacked at any time within two years in the district court in an action for that purpose by any person interested in the will or estate of the deceased. If the latter, an appeal may be had to the district court.” (p. 618.)”
