Guardian of property


A guardian of the property of a ward is bound to deal
therewith as carefully as a man of ordinary prudence would deal with it if it were his own, and,
subject to the provisions of this Chapter, he may do all acts which are reasonable and proper for the
realisation, protection or benefit of the property.
