Holding

The court held that an amended complaint relates back to the original filing date for statute of limitations purposes where it does not introduce a wholly different cause of action but merely perfects or corrects the statement of the original claim, and that a creditor's claim against an estate need not be drafted with the technical precision of a pleading so long as it provides adequate notice of the nature of the demand.
