mHE WILL AND THE WAY. No. 48.—Overburdened Private Trustees. Sentiment may cause a testator to place a heavy weight of anxiety on a friend by appointing him to be trustee of his ©state. At the outset the trustee, laoking experience, may anticipate that th© duties will not be burdensome, but time perhaps proves that the task is not the easy one he expected it to be, with the result that the trustee gets an uneasy feeling that, though he ia making personal sacrifices in his endeavour to carry out th© wishes of the testator, circumstances preclude him from giving that efficient service which the estate demand?. A trustee in this position is well advised to_ transfer his responsibility to the Publio Trustee. Numbers of private trustees have in this way secured peace of mind for themselves and security for the property entrusted to their charge. The reason is plain to see; the Publio Trust Office has the skilled staff, the experience, the equipment to ensure' satisfactory management of an estate, the administration of x which may be quite bayond the powers of a privato trustee. For full information, apply to THE PUBLIC TRUSTEE at Wellington; Or to the DISTRICT PUBLIC TRUSTEES at Masterton, Napier, -Palmeroton North,, Wanganui, Hawera, and New Plymouth. DISTRICT OFFICERS at Maitinborough. Carterton, Eketahuna, Pahiatua, Woodville, Dannevirke, Waipukurau, Waipa/wa, Hastings, Levin, Feilding,. Marton, Taihape, ajid Stratford.
