CURRIE LIBEL CASE.
DECISION CELEBRATED BY RETURNED MEN. APPEAL TO BE LODGED. (UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION—BV ELECTRIC TELEG RA P I! —CO P V RIGIIT.) (AUSTRALIAN PRESS ASSOCIATION.) Received 10.20 a.m. to-day. OTTAWA, May 2. News from Cobourg states that the Currie libel decision will be the subject of an appeal. Fallowing the verdict, returned men hastily 'organised a public dinner and held high revels for five hours in a hotel which was christened the “New War College” by the defence counsel. General Currie has received a telegram from the father of Private G. Price, the only Canadian killed on Armistice Day,' resenting the recalling of distressing memories and wishing General Currie success in his litigation.
