This was a petition for leave to appeal to the House of Lords.
The petitioner stated that the only question of law in the case arose on the title to sue, and that there was really nothing else appealable. The objection taken was on the ground that valuable witnesses might die during the time the appeal was pending, and it was stated that, provided it were agreed in such an event to take the judge's notes of evidence at the last trial, no further opposition would be offered. A letter to that effect having been put in process, the Court granted the prayer of the petition.
Counsel for Petitioner— Dean of Faculty (Clark), Q.C., and Balfour. Agents— Drummond & Reid, W.S.
Counsel for Respondents— Solicitor-General (Watson), and Trayner. Agent— P. S. Beveridge, S.S.C.
