In any action against the representatives of a deceased person, an acknowledgment or promise shall not be sufficient evidence of a new or continuing contract to take the case out of the statute of limitations, unless it is contained in a writing made or signed by the party to be charged thereby. This provision shall not alter the effect of any payment of principal or interest.
