Leave being granted, Mr. Jenkin proceeded with the main applica tion, saying the application was confined to the judgment on the counter-claim. The case

of the plaintiffs in the court below was a claim for $186 and for damages, the total amount claimed being $1,000, damages being for wrong ful determination of service. The Puisne Judge gaye judgment for $186, but did not give judgment on the claim for damages. There was no appeal from that judgment for

The Counter-Claim.

On the counter-claim Mr. and Mrs. Taylor claimed damages for wrongful dismissal. On that tho Puispe Judge gave judgment for the Cafe. The case arose out of regrettable happenings in the Cafe on the night of July 14 particu- larly shortly after midnight when as a result of what was done and said the applicants claimed they' were wrongfully dismissed, by Mr. Durand and.Madame Flint.

That was all he could find of what was said by the em ployers.

Wrong Interpretation?.. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor were jointly engaged on a joint salary of $500, and it was argued by their solicitor that notice to one was notice to both.

Another point was that on the pleadings in the Summary Court it was the claim of both parties that there had been a wrong done by the other side. As he (counsel) read the records of the proceedings the evidence left him unable to find in any shape or form any indies- tion of mutuality on that fateful right. The parties did not put up any case of that kind."
