BEAUTY SPECIALIST
ACTION FOR DAMAGES
When the case of Louisa Williams v. Florence Hutten, an action for £1000-for an allegrfd breach of agreement, was called in the Supreme Court to-day, Mr. T. M. Wilford, who appeared for the plaintiff, stated that it was a claim for damages in connection with the operations of a beauty specialist, who had been in business in Wellington and in Auckland. Since the writ had been served the defendant had become bankrupt, and the question now arose as to whether, in the interests of his client, counsel should go further and join the Official Assignee. Mr. Wilford quoted from a newspaper report of the bankruptcy proceedings, and said it struck him as somewhat anomalous that the bankrupt should have been contributing to her mother's support, and in'addition have to spend a large sum oE money in legal proceedings defending a. claim under her mother's will which was made in liec favour. He asked, that the case should stand over to enable him to join the Assignee. ■ His Honour (Sir Charles Skerrctt) adjourned the case sine clio.
