HONGKONG TELEGRAPH. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1935.
AUTHOR TO PAY UP
ADJOURNMENT APPLICATION
REFUSED BY COURT
Stating that the application for an adjournment was a ruse on the part of the defendant to enable him to! leave the Colony without paying his debte, Mr. A. él Argull yesterday opposed the reqstent on behalf of the Hongkong Daily Press Ltd., who sued E. M. de Villa, of the Metropole Hotel, for $658.
The money was stated to be due on A book on geology written by defen- dant, of which 400-copies had been supplied. One hundred coples wore being withheld until defendant made some payment."
When the case was called, Mr. M.
asked for an adjournment ng his client A. da Silva, representing defendant, was unexpectedly away on important instructionz business and, from the have to be called,
he bad left further evidence would
Mr. Aveulli opposed the application.† The writ was issued in September; de fendant hat had three weeks notice that the case would be called that day and then suddenly this request was sprung on them.
Defendant was not ʼn resident here and the books which he had in his possession were being sold in the Straits Settlements where he would be able to collect the proceeds. The ap- pileation for an adjournment was a ruse, said counsel, to enable him to leave the Colony without paying for the books.
Mr. Justice Lindsell asked what al- vantage plaintiffs would have if the ense was heard that day,
Printing Criticised
Mr. Arculli replied that they could) attach certain books in a local store.
Mr. Siva interfected that if his client intended to leave the Colony without paying he was hardly likely to engage a solicitor for his case, In any case plaintiffs' wishes could be met by an inter-attachment orter on the books.
Evidence was given by Colonel II. Marraw, manager of the plainti Brm, bearing out the statement of
claim.
