* Lands held from the Crown under conditions of purchase are to be valued as freeholds, and the balances due to the Crown are to be set out as charges against the estate.

† Personal property wherever situated must be shown if the deceased was ordinarily domiciled in Australia, and personal property in Australia must be shown separately from personal property outside Australia. If he was not ordinarily domiciled in Australia the personal property in Australia only is to be stated, including debts, money and choses in action receivable or recoverable by the administrator in Australia.

Property not coming under any of the above headings must be particularized separately under a special heading describing it.

The word “nil” should be written against each in the headings under which there is no estate.

Note.—If the deceased was not ordinarily domiciled in Australia at the time of death, the debts due and owing to persons resident in Australia, or contracted to be paid in Australia, or charged on property situated in Australia are the only deductions allowed from the estate. These debts should be fully set out and the creditors’ names and address given, and, if charged on property in Australia, the property should be fully described.
