50 Seal not to be affixed till duty is paid, &c.
The seal of the Court shall not be affixed to any such probate of the will or letters of administration until the prescribed statements of the estate of such deceased person are filed, and until all such stamp and other duties (other than probate duties), if any, have been paid as would have been payable if such probate or letters of administration had been originally granted by the Court.
No such letters of administration shall be so sealed until such affidavits have been filed and such bond has been entered into as would have been required if such letters had been originally granted by the Court.
Any such statement may be made and verified by the executor or administrator, as the case may be, or by some person on his behalf, and any such bond may be entered into by such administrator outside Tasmania before any commissioner of the Court for taking affidavits.
