LAW

iitiCE.
COURT OF CHANCERY, DEC.
WATERS V. TAYLOR AND OTHERS'.

Sir S. Itosttu.v, on the part of
~Mr, Taylor,
matte an application to the Court that Mr. Waters
be ordered tri pay the purchase-Money of the
Opera-house into Court on or before. Tuesday,
the 2tl of January next ; and be restrained front
entering on possession OF the money be paid.
Mr. HART begged, on the part of Mr. ;Waters,
that the motiou might stand over till after the
Christmas holydays, as his client was anxious for
time tti make an affidavit, which could nut be done
before the holydays commenced.
Sir S. ROMILLY could not consent to such a
delay, as the object in view would he entirely lost
by it. That •object was to restrain Mr. Waters
ham entering on posseSsiOn, as Ite was now do-
-litig, till he had paid the pnrchase-money. To
an observation from Mr. Hart, that the interfer-
ence of Mr. Taylor at this moment had is tendency
to injure the' concern, the Learned Council re-
plied, that such was the'allegation upon the, uto...
tion, for re-opening the,biddings last Summer, and
yet the mischief which, had accrued to the con,
cern.from the resale, which was the result of that
motion, was it gain. of 30,000/ , it being sold ori-
ginally to Mr. IVatersior 40,0001. ante lie having
repurchased it for 70,1501.. The Learned Coun-
sel went on to. show, that Mr. Waters was now
proceedinc, as the property were Iris own. He
had formerly acted as alruitee, aud•under there-
Vrictions his trust imposed, paying the my
collected into Itonmcls!ey mid Co. ; but now et:
was proceeding to act as an independent proptioor.
With Ont tin) one, he ban fixed
the opening, ot the Opera for a duty. In
stead of ad eliising it, as w:i405041,, lit bail-sent
round a eiieirlai to vive notii:e cif the.opetiing,,uf
which Sir S:t mud said lie could "produce a copy:
Mr. lima object Pal to cols, except it was veri-
fied by atlidiivii ; ttn l Sir Sionnel saying be could
obtain an affidavit. by to-morrow, the motion was
postponed till then.
