PUBLIC TRUST OFFICE OF NEW ZEALAND THE Public Trustee is appointed to administer all estates, of which he may be made executor by will. Besides this, he is empowered to take charge of all kinds of money trusts, such as those under marriage settlements ; sums to be invested for the benefit of minors, or bequeathed for charitable purposes; moneys, the title of which is in dispute, or the legal owner of which is unknown. To administer all intestate estates, of which letters of administration have not been granted to relatives or other persons entitled thereto; the realisation and distribution of the residues after the payment of all just debts. The administration of the estates of lunatics and lunatic patients also devolves on the Public Trustee, as well as the protection of all lands lying waste, of which the owner is unknown, or has been absent from the Colony for ten years, without having left any known agent. The whole Colony is responsible for the due fulfilment of all trusts and for the safe custody of the property placed under the charge of this officer— and by one Judge, at least, it has been expressed that it is a satisfaction to the Court to be able to appoint a public officer to discharge certain duties (which the Court has power to do) instead of having the name of some person proposed, into whose fitness for the office the Court would have to enquire. It must be added, that whilst for the protection of persons placing property in the Public Trust Omce the Colony is made ultimately responsible, to preserve the public funds as far as possible from loss, no trust can be received, nor any property parted with, without the consent of a Board, of which the Colonial Treasurer and the Attorney-General of the Colony are members ; nor can any money be issued without the approval of the Auditor and Controller-General. All further particulars may be obtained on application to the Public Trustee, at the Public Trust Office, Wellington ; or to ALEXANDER LEAN, ESQ., 6060 Christohurch NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS. IN CONSEQUENCE of an Alteration in the Time of Going to Press, ALL ADVERTISEMENTS for the "CANTERBURY TIMES" must be sent in to this Office Not Later than 4 p.m. on THUKSDAYS.
