DEED IS
DECLARED
INVALID
Decision Of Supreme Court In
Case Of the Union 81. Jean
Bapt|sts Of Pavtuckst

Michael Blsis and other members Of
the Union ct. Jean Baptiste de Pawtucket
won in their suit against j. b. s. Brszeau.
ct al. The appellate division OF the su-
preme court in an opinion handed down
today declares that the ded made by the
defendant TO a syndicate consisting OF
members Of the society is void and must
be set aside.
The society was the owner OF the land
and buildings. In which was its hall. sub
ject TO a mortgage OF $1,000. PROPOSE
ton was made to have the society merged
with general organization, and upon
this question the society was divided. The
com plainants were OF the party opposing
the merger and the respondents not only
favored II, but had become members OF
the general organization. A majority OF
the society. including the respondents
were I'm favor of the merger.
The majority were ANXIOUS or winding
up the affairs of the society and voted
that the officers collect no more dues,
though there was enough owing the so
ciety 10 pay all it's debts. No bids were
received for the building and land, but
II was voted to sell TO syndicate for
$500 The court is OF the opinion that
the action OF the majority in regard to
dues was intended to make the society IN
. solvent.
II was claimed by the president that the
hall was worth for a society from 5000 TO
5000 and that the land and building cost
s54l9 three years ago. Only sealed bids
were called for and there was no at
tempt to sell the property at public anc-
ton.
Chief Justicess Stiness. who writes the
opinion. says: "Singularly enough the
treasurer entered In his book the receipt
Of $500. the only money paid. as pay
ment not from the purchasers as indi-
viduals. but from st. John Hall syndi-
cate. The name was aply applied.
In Hambleton VS.. Rhind. "a and 466,
he court said: "A syndicate is an asso-
citation OF individuals formed for the pur-
pose Of conducting and carrying out some
particular business transaction ordinarily
Of a financial character. In which the
members are mutually interested. Such
evidently were the purchasers OF the
property In this case. They were a part
Of and mutually interested with the ma
jority members, whose design was TO Sc
cure the property for, the benefit of the
organization to which they had transferred
their allegiance. The committee was the
TO protect, the interests OF the minority.
The majority had put the society into
the plight Of an insolvent debtor. when
otherwise its debts might have been paid
and had themselves voted the sale of the
property to themselves, practically for
the end they desired TO accomplish. In
so doing they were not acting fairly tow
ards the minority, who had rights as
members In the property sold"
