BOARD

Mr. Sin: I must object to this. It is most Improper,

Mr. Marton: The reason I say this is that Mr. Guard has just discover- ed that Mr. North is getting on his feet again, and he is putting up this preposterous claim.

that

His Lordship: He admitted ho knew that Is it not natural? It is no use suing a man of straw.

Mr. Marton withdrew the remark. Ilis Lordship asked why, if Mr. North's story of the advancement of the $300 were true, the Company. which was still in existence, had not sued for its return.

Mr. Marton: I cannot give any ren-

son:

Is Lordship: It will count against

you.

Judgment was given for Guard in both claim and counter-claim, with costs, his Lordship stating that he did not believe that North was offered the job of assistant manager at $300 a month. The question of commis sion had not been fully gone into and any adjustment due to North would be enquired into and made by. the Registrar.
