An adopted son shall never take the family ,name and the estate of his natural father, the funeral cake follows the family ,name and the estate, the funeral offerings of him who gives ,his son in adoption cease ,as far as that son is concerned .

Let the son of an appointed daughter first present a funeral cake to his mother, the second to her father, the funeral to his father s father.

Immediately on the birth of his first born a man is ,called the father of a son and is freed from the debt to the manes, that ,son , therefore, is worthy ,to receive the whole estate.

He who takes care of his deceased brother s estate and of his widow, shall, after raising up a son for his brother, give that property even to that ,son .

One may also entertain on such occasions one s maternal grandfather, a maternal uncle, a sister s son, a father in law, one s teacher, a daughter s son, a daughter s husband, a cognate kinsman, one s own officiating priest or a man for whom one offers sacrifices.

But he whose father is dead, while his grandfather lives, shall, after pronouncing his father s name, mention that of his great grandfather.
