MORTGAGE DISPUTE
PAYMENT OF INTEREST FAILURE OF APPEAL (Por Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Judgment was delivered by the Chief Justice, Sir Michael Myers, and Justices Ostler and Fair in the case Gower and Gower versus Cornford and Gillies in the Court of Appeal this morning. The appeal was from the judgment of Mr. Justice Smith given in November of 1935 when it was held that the appellants, as administrators of the estate of Benjamin Gower, deceased, were liable to pay £3400, with interest, in respect of a second mortgage originally given by Benjamin Gower to Percy Alexander Gillies, since deceased, of whose estate the respondents are the executors. The judgment holds that the respondents are entitled to hold the judgment pronounced in their favour by the Supreme Court. The appeal was dismissed with costs on the highest scale as ip a case from a distance.
