(2.) | Any lessee in a joint lease may transfer his interest in the land to a colessee or to some other person, as provided in section one hundred and forty-seven; and, in the event of the death of a lessee in a joint application, the executors or administrators shall have the same powers to transfer the land of the deceased lessee as is provided in the case of the decease of any lessee. |
