defendants, the directors, had the powers and authori-

liable to pay a call of 21.• wilich had been made by the
defendants as directors, which the plaintiffs had re-
fused to pay ; the third, whether the deed of settle-
ment of the company was binding upon the shareholders,
and such a deed having regard to the terms of the ori-

plaintiffs were bound to execute ; and the 4th, whether

tiffs' share forfeited for not having executed the
deed of settlement, had power so to do. The case came

plaintiffs for an injunction to restrain the defendants
