In his Lordship's opinion it was a Scottish settlement pure and simple. The general rule was that the question was decided by the domicile of the settler unless there were contrary indications. In the present case there were abundant contrary indications, and from beginning to end it was a Scottish settlement.

The time to ascertain the nature of the settlement was the date when it was made. The Public Trustee Act, 1906, did not extend to a foreign settlement, and there was nothing in the Act which enabled the Public Trustee to accept trusts outside the jurisdic tion, but that did not prevent him from accepting the trusts of an English settlement which included property outside the jurisdic tion.
