THE 'WILL AND TIIE WAY. No 32.—Saving Private Estates. When. Sir Julius Vogel, half a century ago, persuaded J’urliameufc to pass the Public Trust Pill his action was not due to a pressure for “State enterprise” in a general way. It was not. the wish of the statesmen here in the early seventies to look for a Government profit in a new undertaking. They decided to establish the Public Trust Office because they were firmly convinced by hard cold facts that such an institution was necessary for the safeguarding of private estates. As far back as the year 11-170, Sir .Julius Vogel referred to “innumerahle eases” of minors whose inheritance had been largely wasted or utterly lost hv the ’ mistakes, the unwise speculation or the peculation of trustees. The Public Trust Office came then as a sure men ns of enabling a testator to make the best possible provision for ids dependants without fear ot mishap. For full .aformntion apply to the Public Trustee, Wellington, or to MU T. R. SAYWELL, District Public Trustee. Greymouth. or Mr Wm. Wilson (Wm. Duncan and Co.), agent at Hokitika.
