The sixth day of the hearing of
the appeal against the order of the Chief Justice for the winding up of the Yue Hing Company, opiur dealers, of Jervois Street, opened this morning before Sir Arvilland de Sausmarez
(HBM's Judge at Shangbai) and Mr. Justice Gompertz (Paisns Judge) sitting in Fall Court.
The Counsel engaged in the case are Mr. G. C. Alabaster and Mr. Eldon Potter, for the appellant Company, and Mr. E. H. Sharp, K.C., and Mr. F. C. Jenkin for the respondent.
1 Mr. Sharp continued to addresa the Ccnit, answering the point raised by the appellanta that the proper course to have taken to get the Company wound up would not have been by petition but by an action by one of the share- holders. That point, he argued, was wholly irrele ant to the ques tion before their Lordships. T
The case was further adjourned.
