                    ARTICLE III
   On the right of British Subjects to dispose of their

                  Property at will

      By the IVth Article of the Treaty, British subjects are
allowed to purchase in Siam “houses, gardens, fields, or
plantations.” It is agreed, in reference to this stipulation, that
British subjects, who have accordingly purchased houses, gardens,
fields, or plantations, are at liberty to sell the same to
whomsoever they please. In the event of a British subject dying
in Siam, and leaving houses, lands, or other property, his relations,
or those persons who are heirs according to English law, shall
receive possession of the said property; and the British Consul,
or some one appointed by the British Consul, may proceed at
once to take charge of the said property on their account. If the
deceased should have debts due to him by the Siamese, or other
persons, the Consul can collect them; and if the deceased should
owe money, the Consul shall liquidate his debts as far at the
estate of the deceased shall suffice.
