Excerpt from Administration Practice in India: Including a History of the Office of Administrator-General of Bengal and a Collection of Forms in Usage Under the Administrator-General's Act, the Succession Act, Etc;, In Administering Estates of Deceased Persons in India

The office of the Administrator-General grew out of the exigencies of the Mercantile and Trading Community in Bengal, whose interests were safeguarded by the Charter establishing the Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William in Bengal, dated the 26th March 1774. Its functions have been developed, and regulated, on lines which experience has shown to be necessary; and its history is an illustration of the adaptation, and modification, to suit local circumstances, of those principles which underlie the law of trusts, and the law affecting the administration of the Estates of deceased persons.

Under the Charter establishing the Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William (dated 26th March 1774), that Court was empowered to exercise such Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction in Bengal, Behar and Orissa, over British subjects, as was exercised in the diocese of London, and to that end the Court was authorized: -

1.To grant Probates of the last Wills of all, or any, British subjects, dying within the three provinces of Bengal, Behar and Orissa.

2. To commit Letters of Administration of the goods, chattels, credits and other effects of such British subjects who should die intestate within those provinces, or who should not have named an Executor resident in such district; or when the Executor being duly cited should not appear, and sue for such Probate, annexing the Will to such Letters of Administration, where such person should have left a Will without naming an Executor.
