* The expression “father” is, for the sake of brevity, used throughout this memorandum as indicating the person for the time being aoting on behalf of his child or children. It will be understood that, in any case in which there is no father or in which the father is incapable of acting on behalf of his minor child or children, the word “mother” or “guardian” (as the case may be) must, wherever the context admits, be substituted for the word “father.” The mother of an illegitimate child must for this purpose be recognised as its mother even in countries in which an illegitimate child is deemed a filiua nullius.
† In the case of countries having colonies, residence in the colony may be considered as equivalent.
