IRISH COURT OF CHANCERY

OnANTHAM AND 0 MEM T. REDNIOND.—This was
petition praying that the respondent might be compelled
to a specific performance of an agreement entered into on.
the 11th of March, 1852, and be restrained from sailing
a certain vessel called the Troubadour, between Wexford
and Liverpool, or from assisting any other persons in so
doing. It appeared that the petitioners were the owners
of the Montague steamer, and carried ow business between
Wexford and Liverpool, under the came of the Wexford.
Steam Navigation Company. The 'respondents, prior to
1852, had been carrying on business-in the same line.
In 1852, the petitioners, being desirous of employing
their vessel in that line, entereA into a treaty with the
respondent for the purchase of the- business, and the
withdrawal of his vessel and. accordingly, on the 11th

March, 1852, an agreement was entered into between
the owners of the Emerald: and. the. respondent, and
signed by the petitioners and the respondent, whereby
the petitioners were te. pay to the respondent one-sixth

of the net profits of their iessel,. the tinerald, so long as
she; or • any other vessel that might supply her place,
would'ply upon the station ; that the respondent should
be at liberty, within twelve months, to purchase a sixth
share in the vessel; that he should. not, (Erectly or indi-
rectly, assist any other person in carrying on any such
business ; that the petitioners were • not to withdraw the
vessel without three months' notice• to the respondent ;
that the vessels should come to his :wharf, and the peti-
tioners should pay him the it
sum for wharfage. The
Emerald was accordingly put upon the- station, and the
respondent withdrew his vessel. In the year 1855, Mr.
Brownrigg, who was one of the owners of the Emerald, re-
tired from the company, and sold his share in the business,
and other parties (who were- joined as petitioners) became
partners. 1856- the Emerald was withdrawn, and another
ve.o.zol put upon the station 4 and this. change was notified
to the respondent by a letter of the- 10th of March, 1856,
to which charge he assented, and the Montague steamer
i:IM Firefly,essrs. Allenana joinedeont continued
was accordingly put upouthe.station. In October, 1856,
an opposition was commeneed I.w: the Messrs. Allen, or

while the agreement was in, fitArce, put that -essel on the
wharf. The caso,for•the,r Petitionasfrolm using his
woondent was that hi never
had,any notice
of th M e - '
e, tssrs Allen having been, brought
into .the concern,
and. that he was a partner himself, and
therefore should. have. got notice of it ; that- he never
1L reed to sea the station, but that the agreement was,
Lbat he should keephisvessel off the statiou,so low- as he
should co-operate with the petitioners - that the .petition-
ers had•broken the agreement, and that,, when there was
a, change of parties+. the station was to revert to him.
The Solicitor-Gmeral, Mr. Laws" Q.C., and Mr.
Gibbon, were counsel for the petitioners. Messrs.
Brewster+ Q.C., J. E. Walsh, QC-., and E. Lawless.
were counsel forthe respondent. The Lord Chancellor,
in giving judgment, stated that the contract oiltered into
was a, personal contract, entered into by c‘ the owners of
the. Emerald;" that a party who aogalre,a h right, also
subjects himself to a cortespoltding I.iability ; that o'3
word "owners"
not the persons tin nits '', +
'--- 1-4- succeed them ; that the
meaSkt the them_ existing owners, and
•f
contract was iy•,,t intops,'
aed to give their successors a
binding rich as ap-
,ainst the respondent, but was applica-
ble. only to
43iie orioinal parties; and therefore the
11*tith:'1-1- Ill'..Ould be dismissed, with costs.
