Court Appeal
Further legal submissions were presented by Icading Counsel for the appellants when the Gibb, Livingston and Company appeal case was resumed before the Full Court, comprising the Chief Justice, Sir Gerard Howe, and the Senior Pulsne Judge, Mr Justice E. H. Williams, this morning.

Rondon and Co., Ltd., of French Bank Building, for $164,486 as return of deposits paid by appellants in respect of contracts for the purchase of salted hog casings and hen albumen crystals which were allegedly not delivered.

Why we say Prang. For a year or two this was exclusively Royal Air Force slang meaning to crash-land an aircraft. Later It came to mean destroy or wreck. It owes much to its sound but it may have come from the Zulu word "prang". which means to spear, or the Malay “perang),” to attack, or even from the Gaelic. "pronn," to pound.
