or about to be dissolved, or for any reason it is impracticable or inexpedi-
ent to continue the corporation activities, and all or any part of the cor-
porate property is not needed for the payment of the corporate debts, a
court of equity shall have power to determine by its decree the disposi-
tion of said property; and, in such case, in so far as any donors of prop-
erty to the corporation, or their successors in interest, may not be entitled,
to such property as a result of the cessation of the corporate activities,
or may fail to assert any claim thereto, after having received notice of the
substance and object of the bill or petition either by personal summons-
or by such publication as the court shall direct, the court shall, so far as
possible, direct or provide for the transfer of such property to any other
corporation or association of this or another State, having a similar or
analogous character or purpose, or in some way associated or connected with
the corporation to which the property has previously belonged, the intent
of this act being that courts of equity may in such cases exercise the
judicial power of cy pres, in order to carry out, in spite of the change of
circumstances, the general purpose of the donor or donors of the prop-
erty as regards the application and utilization of the gift or gifts.
