JUDGE AND COUNSEL.
(( UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES."
Special reference to the candid and helpful arguments he had heard at the trial of an application under the Family Protection Act was made by Mr. Justice MacGregor in a reserved judgment read in the Supreme Court at Wellington. To the amusement of the eifht counsel engaged in tlic case and others who were present, his Honor, with a smile, described these circumstances as being unusual. There was little or no dispute as to the material facts, stated his Honor. The affidavits and figures submitted to the Court, though lengthy, were yet clear and self-explanatory. The arguments of counsel for the various parties conccrncd were candid and helpful. In these somewhat unusual circumstances — (laughter)—he had not much_ difficulty, after 'this hearing, in arriving at the conclusion that the plaintiff had made gooci his claim.
