charge of $172($1 per notice) was the utmost that could

be made. The Liquidators Solicitore declined to discuss the matter with me on the ground that they had succeeded

in getting the item passed by the taxing master and that

the amount charged must therefore be taken to be correct.

The position taken up is, apparently, that any charge, however indefensible or exorbitant it may be, is legitimate as against a client, if the taxing master can be persuaded

to pass it.

My opinion being that the Liquidator'a Solicitors had made an unwarrantable ovenoharre of over $3,000 on their

previous bill I informed them that my discretion in taxing

the present bill would be influenced by this fact See 0.25,

rule 38, p.1203, Annual Practice, 1912.

-

This influence was a reason, additional to those

given below, for taxing off the items brought in review.

A perusal of the previous bill discloses many

other items which the Liquidator's Solicitors are not

strictly entitled to charge. It has been taxed with the

utmost liberality, the profit ooste being allowed at $17,000.

(sd.) Hugh A. Nisbet,

Registrar.

12th. July, 1912.
