The charge of of money trusts, such as Marriage Settlements, moneys to be invested for the benefit of Minors, moneys bequeathed for charitable objects, moneys the title to which is in dispute, or whose legal owner is unknown or cannot be found, &c., &c. 2. The administration of the wills o persohs who by appointing the Public Trustee as their executor secure the guarantee of the State for the due fulfil* ment of their wishes, and to avoid the risk consequent on the appointment f private persons as executors, who not unfrequently, though earnestly desirous of acting for the benefit of parties interested, fail to carry out legally the objects 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 wish to in-

cur the responsibility of administration, or cannot from any cause obtain the necessary powers to act; In such cases it is the duty of the Public Trustee to discharge all legal debts so far as the assets extend,, and divide the residue amongst the next
