O'KEEFFE V. PHILLIPS. npERMS OF SETTLEMENT. 1. Apology in Conrt. 2. ,£IOO as damages. 3. Each party to pay their own costs. C. P. SKERRETT, Solicitor for Defendant. E. STAFFORD, Solicitor for Plaintiff. This to be in settlement of all aotions of tort by O'Keeffe against Phillips. APOLOGY TO BE AS FOLLOWS :— I have to state that the information ought not to have been laid, and that no imputation whatever rests on ihe Plaintiff. C. P. SKERRETT. E. STAFFORD.

O'KEEFE v. PHILLIPS. TO THE EDITOR. — We observe an advertisement in v ~ your last night's issue indicating the terms of settlement of this aotion. We think it our duty to state, that there waß no arrangement between either the counsel or solicitors for the parties that the terms of settlement should be advertised. In the absence of such'an arrangement, the|publication appears highly improper. The publication was never stipulated for, was made entirely without our knowledge or consent, and was, in our opinion, a gross breach of the understanding between the solicitors to the parties. We therefore feel compelled to point out that tho action was grounded upon the issue of a search-warrant in respect of a mare which had disappeared from Mr. Colemau Phillips' Btation, and not upon any other oharge or prosecution made or taken against O'Keefe; and, further, that the retraction is confined to the one mattor which was the subject of the aotion. HUGH GULLY, Counsel for Defendant. C. P. SKERRETT, Solicitor for the Defendant.

O'KEEFFE V. PHILLIPS. TO THE EDITOR. SIR — Referring to the letter appearing at the foot of the advertisement pnblished by Mr. O'Keeffe in O'Keeffe v. Phillips in your Saturday's issue, there was no arrangement that the terms of the settlement should or should not be advertised. In the absence of any such arrangement, therefore, each party would be entitled to publish the literal terms of the settlement. Mr. O'Keeffe's advertisemert does no more than this. If Mr. Phillips by his compromise desired to restrain the plaintiff's right to publish the terms of settlement, he ought to have made it part of the terms of the compromise. No understanding as to publication or nonpublication of the terms of settlement was ever discussed or even impliedly understood between the solicitors to the parties. The statement therefore that a gross breach of the understanding between the solicitors to the parties has taken place is unwarranted. The publication objected to contains the literal words of the written terms of settlement, and therefore the laat paragraph of the letter seems improper, and an intended repetition of the charges which had been previously made by the defendant against the plaintiff. Attention is drawn to the paragraph in Mr. O'Keeffe's advertisement whioh is as follows :—": — " This is to be in settlement of all action of tort (wrongs) by O'Keeffe against Phillips." The inference is plain that there may or may not have been other injnries done to O'Koeffe by Phillips whioh by the settlement of this action were compromised. E. STAFFORD, Solicitor for the Plaintiff. A DISCLAIMER. TBEG to state that the Geo. Woodward that appeared, iv the R.M. Court for the amount of £5 odd on last Thursday was not the Geo.
