TO CORRESPONDENTS.
“Victim,” Waipawa.—You ask (a) How many years is it since the law was altered regarding a father dying without a, will ? and (b) How did the law dispose of the property before beingaltered ? —These questions are more for your lawyer than for us. We might say, however, that the last alteration was made in 1885, by the amending of the Administration Act of 1879. Prior to that date the position was regulated by statutes of the reign of Charles 11, and James 11. called the Statutes of Distribution. The conditions to your other question would require to be stated before a satisfactory reply could be given; and we would advise you to consult your, solicitor.
