The administration of the wills of persons who by appointing tbe Public Trustee as tbeir executor secure the guarantee of tbe State for the due fulfilment of their wishes, and avoid the risk consequent on the appointment of private persons as executors, who not unfrequently though earnestly desirous of acting for tbe benefit of parties interested, fail to carry out legally the ebjects for which they were appointed, and consequently involve themselves and those whose interests they are striving to protect in costly and harassing litigation. 3' The administration of all estates of which no disposition has been made by will, whenever relatives do not wi3h to incur the responsibility of administration, or cannot from any cause obtain tbe necessary powers to act.
