the case to the Superior Court?—I think that would be desirable. You would then put the acting part upon the defendant; and in very many cases, the same man would refuse to consent that a thing should be done, would nevertheless abstain from himself acting in order to prevent it.

INTERPLEADER.

Has any inconvenience arisen from the present practice in interpleader, where goods are taken in execution?-I am told there has been a great deal. I am told that the expense attendant upon the keeping of the goods is often more than the amount in question; in cases of cattle especially, In many cases a man has, for instance, a favourite pig, and he will not hear of its being sold; it, therefore, has to be kept in custody, and whether that is upon his own premises or any other, much expense must be in

curred.

Have you any suggestion to make for the purpose of improving the practice of interpleader in the County Courts?-The ordinary cases of interpleader, according to my observation, are almost all fictitious cases; cases altogether got up, mere speculative actions. I think it would tend to check these actions if you required a deposit of the probable amount of costs, before a party should be allowed to question the validity of an execution. I do not remember more than one or two really true cases; the others according to the perfect understanding of every body present, were merely speculative-where some friends of the debtor instituted proceedings by collusion, in order to give him a chance of getting hold of some of the property.

Has it occurred to you whether it would be practicable to introduce a change in the rule which requires the summons to be served ten days before the trial, so as to shorten the period within which the trial would be held ?-I have not considered that; but assuming it had the effect of lessening the expense of keeping the goods or chattels, it would be an advantage. I see no reason why that time should not be shortened, the objection always made to me, has been the expense which is incurred of keeping charge of whatever is in question.

Do you think any practice could be introduced, such as applies in replevin, that the claimant should have the opportunity of having the goods returned, upon giving security to try the case or upon deposit with the bailiff?-Yes; upon giving security or deposit.

SMALL TENEMENTS.

Is the jurisdiction to give possession of small tenements under section 122 of 9 & 10 Victoria, c. 95, found to be convenient?-Eminently so; I do not know any part of my jurisdiction that has met with more approval.

Would it be convenient to extend that jurisdiction to tenements of greater value, where the relation of landlord and tenant exists? I think so; I believe it is very much desired that it should be done. To what amount should you say; has that occurred to you?-No, it has not. Have you any objection to 1007.?-According to my own observation in my own district, I do not think there is a desire to have any limit, people would like to have the power of doing it in all cases where an obstinate tenant insists upon remaining. I think practically it would be very little used; cases of holding over rarely occur except among the lower orders. You see no objection to the increase of the rent or value, where the relation of landlord or tenant exists? -No, I see none.

FORFEITURE.

Would it be convenient that jurisdiction should be extended to cases of forfeiture where the annual value does not exceed 50%. ?—I think so.

It has been suggested that cases may occur in which a man lets a piece of land, and it is built upon, and then forfeiture occurs as between the original lessor and the lessee, by which the under tenants of the lessee might be ousted when the property had been largely increased in value; what would you say as to such cases as those?-With regard to these questions, I would make similar answers to them that I did to question No. 3.

Would you limit the amouns to the rent or value of the property at the time of the forfeiture occurring?

-No.

Do you consider, if jurisdiction were given to the County Courts in cases of forfeiture, it would be advisable to introduce into the practice of the County Courts an equitable jurisdiction to relieve from the effects of the forfeiture ?-I do.

Do you think that a common law jurisdiction, in cases of forfeiture, could be safely given to the County Courts without having it qualified in that way?-No.

JUDGMENT BY DEFAULT.

Is it desirable to repeal so much of the proviso contained in section 11 of 13 and 14 Victoria, c. 91, as excepts judgments by default from the operation of the enacting part of the clause ?--In the case of Glyme v. Roberts, which is referred to, Mr. Baron Parke said, "It is difficult to see the reason why the Legislature has excepted the case of judgment by default." I agree with that observation; I should not create a distinction; I think many of

these judgments by default are from ignorance or
neglect of the parties.

Not seeeing that there is any reason upon which the
exception rests, do you consider that it would be ad-
visable to repeal the exception ?-I think so.
Do you think also that it operates prejudicially in
this way, that a defendant may be induced, in many
cases, to enter an appearance and put in pleas, and
thus to run up parties to greater expense, in order that
he might be protected from the costs?-Yes; as it at
present exists, it must operate as a premium to the
defendant in running the plaintiff to greater expense.

EQUITABLE JURISDICTION.

Would it be desirable that the County Courts should
have an equitable jurisdiction to a limited amount?
-That question seems to me to divide itself into two
branches; first, whether it is expedient that there
should be something analogous to the County Court
jurisdiction in cases of equity; and next, whether the
present County Court judges should have that juris-
diction. As to the first, I do not see how there can

be any difference of opinion, because from all I see and
hear in every direction, it is quite clear that, as to the
majority of minor cases in equity, parties have no ac-
cess to justice at all.

You mean to say that there is an absolute denial of
justice?—I do.

more.

From what cause?-From the expenses swallowing up the whole amount in dispute. There is a universal outcry upon the subject, and in every direction persons volunteered to furnish me with cases bearing upon this point, some of which I will bring before the notice of the commissioners, as being more convincing than mere expressions of opinion. They are as follow, and were supplied to me by gentlemen practising in Somersetshire: "We have at this moment going through our office, two chancery suits. In No. 1 the subject matter is a sum of 251., vested in two trustees, who have both meddled with the fund. One of the trustees being insolvent, the bill was filed, and the prayer was, that the money might be brought into court, and distributed among among the beneficiaries. There was no shadow of defence, and a decree was taken by consent. The taxed costs between the parties were over 30%; the defendant's personal costs will be from 20l. to 301. Instead of this, a plaint might have been entered, and an order made by consent; and with even the present anomaly of the payment of all the court expenses by the suitors, the costs would scarcely have reached 15. No. 2 is now sub judice; the sum in question is 4007. unaccounted for by a trustee, under circumstances very similar to No. 1. There is no question of fact or equity raised, and the plaintiffs must have their decree. The costs in the matter cannot be much under 100%., if covered by that figure, as we must go into formal proof. It seems to me that in No. 1, and at about the same expense. No. 3 was the case might be heard in precisely the same way as too poor a case for a remedy. A testator devised a ceeds to be applied to charitable purposes. The trussmall freehold property to trustees for sale, the protees sold, and one of them received the money; subsequently he discovered that the devise was void, under the statute of mortmain. He retained the money (about 607.), refusing to account either to the cestui que trust or the next-of-kin of the testator, and died without refunding. This case might have been easily dealt with in the County Court. No. 4, a testatrix, after one or two small legacies, gave the residue of her estate between her brother and sister, and appointed her medical attendant executor. He proved the will, got in the estate, which was very small, and then brought in a medical bill of some 2001, which absorbed the whole. The case was known to be a gross imposition, but where was the remedy? 2001. or 300l. would not bear a chancery suit. No. 5 is a practical affair. A testator devised his estate to various persons, but took no notice of debts, &c.; his will was prepared by a non-professional person. He was indebted to divers people, and a creditor's suit was instituted. The usual decree was obtained for sale, &c. The only extra expense incurred was the attachment of one of the defendants for not answering under the decree. The property was sold; the proceeds were over 7001. Those proceeds were not sufficient to pay the cost of the suit, and a balance against the plaintiffs (my clients) of some 501. now stands in my office books. You have here five bricks out of my house, I could give you fifty." "H. D. was the holder of an estate (for lives under an ecclesiastical corporation) of small value; all the lives died, and without the knowledge of H. D., the agent who received the rents, renewed the estate in his own name, and thus perpetrated a gross fraud on H. D.; but the amount is small, and the only remedy is a Bill in Chancery, which is worse than the disease." "H. D. and J. V. are tenants in common of a copyhold estate, of very small value; the copy was granted to J. V., who executed a declaration of trust, that as to oue moiety he was possessed in trust for H. D. V. is in possession; he commits waste, and refuses to account, and D. has no remedy but to file a bill for a partition and for an account, but the property is too small to justify such a proceeding." "W. R. purchased a small piece of freehold land in his own name, but with moneys belonging to some poor people; he endorsed on the purchase deed; that such was the

fact, and that his name was only used as a trustee.
On the death of W. R., his nephew and heir-at-law
enters into possession of the land, receives the rents,
and sets up a title, alleging that the money received
by his uncle was paid; the only remedy is a bill in
equity, the costs of which would exhaust the estate,
and ruin the parties." "M. H. left a large, real and
personal estate, on trusts for the benefit of her three
sisters for life, and after their deaths, for the benefit
of her nephews and nieces, then living, for life, with
the ultimate remainder to their issue, to take re-
spectively to their deceased parents' share; the
trustees to have power to advance for the benefit
of each infant legatee any sums respectively, not
exceeding one-half of the infant's expectant share,
for education and advancement in the world, with the
consent of the parties having previous life estates.
Children are still likely to be born, so that it is im-
possible to know what is the expectant share of each
infant. The parents are not able to educate or advance
the children consistently with their future expecta
tions. The parties having previous life estates, being
the parents or grand-parents of the infant legatees,
willingly consent to any advances which the trustees
may make; and the trustees feel that the advances
asked are for the benefit of the infants, and ought to
be made. But under the circumstances, the trustees
are advised by eminent counsel, that they cannot
prudently advance the sums asked for without the
direction of the court, as otherwise it might be
obligatory on them at any future time hereafter to
show that they have exercised a sound discretion.
They therefore decline to do so. Accordingly, some
time since, a petition was presented on behalf of the
infant children of a nephew, for the advance of
1,000l. for education. It was necessary for attorneys
to appear for the trustees, for the parties having life
estates, and for the infants, and to produce long and
complicated affidavits, setting out the will and all
the facts of the case at length. An order was
obtained, as of course, authorizing the trustees to
advance the 1,000%; the costs were taxed at
103. 14s. 6d.! Now, two other sums are applied for
on behalf of other infants, of 1,000l. and 500l. for
education and to purchase a commission in the
marines. The trustees are advised as before, and
therefore still decline to make the advances, except
under the direction of the court; other petitions will,
therefore, have to be presented, and the same ground
travelled over as before, with, no doubt, the same
result,- Order as prayed, costs taxed at 1037. 14s. 6d.'
