our clients bought in good faith and that they paid and expended money on the belief that the Judgment of the Land Court at all events after a reasonable time had elapsed was final and conclusive as it would have been had not Ordinance No.18 of 1908 been passed with a retrospective effect and we must also point out that the Government first agreed to give a title and it was only because we demurred to the unreasonable conditions imposed that notice was given to decide what compensation should be paid and when it was ascertained that a large compensation would have to be paid Ordinance 18 of 1908 was passed.

We have etc.,
