Wellington, 30th December, 1872.
IN pursuance of the powers given by the seven-
teenth, eighteenth, nineteenth, twentieth, and
twenty-first sections of "The Public Trust Office
Act, 1872," any person, company, association, or
public body, within or without the Colony of New
Zealand, may place any property belonging to them
in charge of the Public Trustee, upon trust, for such
uses as may be defined in the deed creating the
trust.

Also, that any Building, Land, or Friendly Society
may by its rules provide that property belonging to
it may be placed in the Public Trust Office, for such
trusts and uses, and with such powers as may be
defined in or by the said rules.

Also, that any person may, by will, place his
property in the Public Trust Office, or may deposit
his will therein for safe custody only.

Applications to place property in the Public Trust
Office will now be received. Such applications must
be made on a form prepared for that purpose, which
can be obtained at the Public Trust Office in Wel-
lington, or at any Money Order Post Office within
the Colony. The application must describe the
nature of the trust intended to be created; but
deeds and other documents relating to the property
need not be sent until the acceptance of the trust
has been considered by the Board.

Local agents will be appointed to manage the
legal and other business connected with estates, the
preference being given (subject to the approval of
the Public Trustee) to Solicitors or Agents who
have previously had the management of the property,
or who are nominated by the person placing the
property in the office, or the parties principally
interested therein.

All further particulars may be obtained on appli-
cation to the Public Trustee, at the Public Trust
Office, Wellington.
