57 Applications to be transmitted by agent to Principal Registrar
The district agent shall forthwith transmit to the Principal Registrar all fees, affidavits, documents, and things received by him; and, upon receipt of the probate or letters of administration, shall deliver the same to the applicant upon demand.
The Principal Registrar shall, upon being satisfied with the sufficiency of the evidence in support of the application, and that the estate does not exceed $10 000 in value, and that no caveat has been entered against the application and that the fees have been duly paid, cause probate or letters of administration (as the case may be) to be issued and delivered to the applicant on demand, or shall forward the same to the district agent for delivery by him to the applicant.
Such probate or administration shall be issued in the name and under the seal of the Court.
