make these alterations, hand them down for the consideration of

Mr. SUGDIN moved, en behalf of the plaintiffs, exparte, for
an injunction to restrain the defendants from proceeding to exca-
vate and cut, for the passage of their canal, a piece of land he.
longing to. the plaintiffs. The bill stated the title of the lady to
had as-
the land ; that being a -spinster she had no issue ; that the lifer-
quis of Hertford was the next taker ; that Miss Colmore
certained, in the beginning of May last, that the defendants were
doing what was now Complained of; that her agent gave notice to
them to desist; that notwithstanding they continued their illegal
work ; that they had threatened to proceed ; and then the bill
prayed for the injunction.
His Loansure eonsideri4 that as the plaintiffs might have come
here in May last, it was infinitely too much to suppose, that just
the day before the Court rose, it would grant the injunction asked
for ex-parte. In interfering under such circumstances to prevent
waste, the Court might work irreparable mischief. The utmost
his Lordship would do, was, to give the plaintiffs leave to give
notice immediately to the defendants, that he would hear the appli-
cation on Thursday next, that they might tuwe the opportunity of
being heard in opposition.
