Proceedings originally instituted against a taxpayer who died during appeal must be treated as proceedings against the legal representative; absence of formal substitution and failure to notify appellate authorities vitiated continuation.

Consequence: impugned order set aside and grounds remitted to the appellate authority to decide afresh against the legal representative; the appeal was allowed for statistical purposes.
