Mrs. Mercer appealed from the judgment of Mr. Justice Eve in the Chancery Division, who de- cided that Mrs. Mary Ann Smalley was entitled to succeed.
Lord Hanworth, giving judg ment, said that the name "Eliza" could not be mistaken for "Mary." By repute Eliza was Mr. Smalley's wife, and therefore the word "wife" could be used in a second- ary meaning. Lord Hanworth thought that the intention of Mr. Smalley was to give his estate to Mrs. Mercer, and the appeal would be allowed.
Lords Justices Lawrence and Russell concurred.
Miss Elsie Shilleto, the new matron for the Bangkok Nursing left Liverpool by the Home, Bibby liner "Lancashire" on April and is due in Bangkok early in May, to relieve Miss Woodward.
