When a testator's will directs the property of the estate to be sold, or

estate, the executor or administrator with the will annexed may sell the

same either at public auction or private sale, and with or without notice,

discretion determine; provided, that the executor or administrator with

the will annexed shall make a return of sale and obtain confirmation

thereof from the Superior Court as in other cases. No title to the property

of an estate sold under the provisions of this Section passes until the sale

is confirmed by the Superior Court of Guam; but the necessity of the

sale, or its advantage or benefit to the estate or those interested therein,

need not be shown. If directions are given in the will as to the mode of

selling, or the particular property to be sold, the executor or administrator

with the will annexed shall observe such directions.
