To take charge of all kiuds of money bonds such as Marriage settlement?moneys to be invested for the benefit of Minors, moneys bequeathed for charitable objects, moneys, the title to which is m dispute, or whose legal owner is unknown, or cannot be found, &c, &. 2. To administer the wills of all persons, who. by appointing the Public Trustee as their executor secure the guarantee of the. State for the due fulfilment of their wishes and avoid the risk consequent on the appointment of private persons as executors, who not unfrequehtly, though earnestly desirous of acting for the benefit of parties interested, fail to cany out legally the objects for which they were appointed, and consequently involve themselves and tho*e whose interests thty are striving to protect m costly and harassing litigation. 3. To take one administration of all estates of which no disposition has been made by will, whenever relatives do not wish to incure the responsibility of administration, or cannot from any cause Obtain the necessary powers to act.
