titled to any property or estate, real, personal or mixed, or
to any debts or choses in action in this State, or due by or
recoverable from any person or persons, corporation or cor-
porations in this State, or from any estate upon which let-
ters testamentary or of administration have been granted
in this State, having no guardian appointed in this State,
but having a guardian appointed in the State, district or ter-
ritory in which the infant resides, duly qualified according
to the laws thereof, and who shall there have given good and
sufficient security for the faithful performance of his trust
as such, or in words to that effect, then, and in such case
the orphans' court of the county or city in this State in
which such property, or any part thereof, of such infant
may be situated, or where such debts or choses in action,
or any part thereof may be due or recoverable, either wholly
or in part, shall pass an order authorizing and empowering
such non-resident guardian to take into his possession such
property wherever situated in this State, and to sue for and
recover such debts or choses in action from all persons or
corporations in this State, and from al] estates upon which
letters testamentary or of administration shall have been
granted, and to act in all respects as if such guardian had
been duly appointed by some one of the Orphans' Courts in
this State; provided, however, that before any such order
shall be passed, such guardian shall first file a petition,
setting forth the fact that such non-resident infant is or
claims to be entitled to such property, debts or choses in
action, as hereinbefore mentioned, and shall also give bond,
with security to be approved by the said Orphans' Court, in
the same manner as if such infant resided in this State,
and shall file in the office of the Register of Wills an in-
strument designating some local agent on whom service of
any process may be made in like manner and with like
effect as if it were served personally on such guardian.

take effect on June 1, 1935.
