  EASEMENT — Exclusive Use of Gateway — Absolute Ownership.
  KEKEWICH, J.:— To my mind all the evidence I have heard to-day, and all of it has been of an extremely thin character, is wholly unnecessary, because I think the Plaintiffs' position is wrong on the construction of the deed of July, 1839. It was because I thought the decision must turn upon that ultimately that I pressed Mr. Barber to throw his weight into the words of the deed, and give me all the assistance he could in ascertaining what was the meaning of the language. I then pointed out to him that the first thing to ascertain was,

  PRACTICE — Injunction — Undertaking as to damages.
  COTTON, L.J.:— This is an appeal under unusual circumstances. The Plaintiff applied for an injunction against the company, which was granted on the terms of the Plaintiff giving the usual undertaking as to damages. The company and Matthews appeared at the hearing of the motion. When the discussion was at an end, counsel for Matthews asked for the usual undertaking as to damages, and the Plaintiff's counsel said it would of course be given. The order was passed and entered with an undertaking only as to damages that might be incurred by the company. I think this was wrong. Counsel

• In Re Blundell; Blundell v Blundell (No 2)

  05 Feb 1890 44 ChD 1, CA

  ADMINISTRATION — Costs — Indemnity against Costs.
  NORTH, J.:— In my opinion the present claim cannot be supported. Blundell's estate is being administered in the action of Blundell v. Blundell. For some reason which I do not know the conduct has been taken away from the Plaintiffs and given to the Bavarian Brewery Company, who have had it down to the present time. In the course of the administration the parties having the conduct seem to have thought that a claim might be successfully made against Messrs. Bower & Company, the solicitors, and they applied to the Court for leave and got leave of the Court to
