Terms of Will
The report said that under the terms of the will the four trustees had been instructed:
| 1. | "To place same in the care of the Alexander Turnbull Library for safe custody and display." |
| 2. | "When they are satisfied that suitable permanent fireproof and earthquake proof accommodation is available in Nelson for the storage and display thereof, to place the same in such accommodation accordingly for safe custody and display." |
"The trustees have made it clear that suitable accommodation means not only a suitable building but also an independent authority, with adequate funds assured for the purpose, to take full and permanent responsibility for the custody and display of the collection," the report said.
