IV. Of the Jurisdiction to enforce the Performance of a
Substantive Act.

Unless, therefore, there were circumstances in the case of Todd v. Wilson which do not appear in the report of that case in the public journals, we conceive that it must be considered as in direct conflict with, and overruling, Stanes v. Parker. And, until the doctrine of the latter case, a doctrine which certainly goes much further than any preceding case in support of the claim of trustees to be allowed remuneration, is confirmed by distinct judicial recognition, we apprehend the doctrine must be taken, on this subject, to be restored to its pristine rigidity; and that, in the absence of express agreement, no implied acqui-porary easement, to erect poles and other temporary escence on the part of a cestui que trust will bind him to submit to the charge of a trustee for professional business done in his character of trustee. We believe, that, before Stanes v. Parker, the doctrine was understood to be, that nothing short of a deliberate and distinct direction in the instrument creating a trust that the trustee, if a solicitor, might charge for his services, or, if there was no such direction in the instrument of trust, a deliberate and positive agreement to pay for such services by the cestui que trust, not resting upon mere inference, but referrible to actual contract, would have the effect of protecting the trustee against the reopening of his account. Stanes v. Parker, therefore, to some extent introduced an element of laxity into the doctrine of the court; and the recent case of Todd v.

Wilson restores it to its original state, of which it may be said, that, however rigid and apparently harsh it may be, it is probably founded on reasons of sound policy, and that, at any rate, it is clear and intelligible, and affords, therefore, a safe ground for the conduct of trustees.

In The Great North of England, Clarence, and Hartlepool Junction Railway Company v. The Clarence Railway Company, (1 Coll. 507), the principal question beof Parliament, under which the plaintiffs claimed to tween the parties was upon the construction of the act act, whether, assuming that the plaintiffs had a right to make a bridge, pursuant to a certain plan, over the defendants' railway, no part of the permanent supports of such bridge being intended to rest upon the defendants' land, the plaintiffs had a right, by way of temconstructions upon land adjacent to the defendants' railway, and to pass and repass across such railway, doing no vexatious acts, compensating for all damage, and not interfering with the regular traffic of the defendants' railway. The defendants, in order to prevent the plaintiffs from so temporarily using their land, plaintiffs from carrying on their works; and the bill had built up a wall, which effectually prevented the prayed an injunction to restrain the defendants from continuing to maintain such wall, and from preventing the defendants from making their bridge &c. In effect, defendants to remove their wall. The court refused to therefore, the bill sought for an order to compel the grant the injunction until satisfied, by the opinion of a court of law, that the plaintiffs had a legal right to build the bridge, and also a legal right to use the defendants' lands by way of temporary easement. But, the Court of Exchequer having certified that the plaintiffs had the view of Knight Bruce, V. C., that it was no objecboth such legal rights, the Lord Chancellor, supporting tion to the injunction that it was in effect of a mandatory character, made the order nearly in the terms of the prayer of the bill. To the same effect is Lord Mexborough v. Bower, (7 Beav. 127), in which an injunc tion was granted to restrain the defendant (who had cut certain channels from one coal field into another, in derogation of an agreement with the plaintiff) from

POINTS ON THE LAW AND PRACTICE OF permitting the communication to continue open.

INJUNCTIONS.

(Continued from p. 230).

III. Doctrine of Acquiescence.

And here may also be mentioned two cases of Whittaker v. Howe (3 Beav. 383) and Tayler v. Davis, (1 Beav. 388, n.) In the former a motion was made to restrain the defendant, a solicitor, who had sold his buAn important distinction exists between the effect of session of books belonging to such business, from desiness to the plaintiff, and, notwithstanding, kept posacquiescence as a ground of demurrer to a bill for an injunction, and as a ground for resisting merely the in-chambers of the plaintiff, and from permitting the same to taining and keeping possession of the books, &c. from the junction. In the first instance, the acquiescence must remain away from the office of the plaintiff." Lord be such as wholly to disentitle the plaintiff to any relief; Langdale at first made no order upon the motion as to in the second, acquiescence falling short of that degree the retention of papers, not, it would seem, from any may be a sufficient defence. (Gordon v. The Cheltenham doubt of the jurisdiction, but because the defendant's Railway Company, 5 Beav. 229). have rendered the injunction unnecessary; but he afcounsel made an offer, which, if acted upon, would terwards made the order. (See note, p. 395).

having, contrary to a covenant in the partnership deed, Tayler v. Davis was a case in which, one partner abstracted a partnership book from the counting-house of the firm, an injunction was granted, and continued at the hearing of the cause, restraining him from continuing to violate the covenant.

V. Of extending the Common Injunction.

The case referred to turned upon two points: first, whether certain buildings erected and used by a company for the purpose only of housing and repairing their engines and carriages, and not as a station, in the ordinary sense of the word, constituted public buildings, &c. within the meaning of the act under which the company acted; and, secondly, whether the acquiescence of the plaintiff had been such as to preclude him from obtaining an injunction. It appeared that he had continually objected to the proceedings of the company, though he had taken no proceedings so long as he was In Ashby v. Jackson (6 Beav. 336) the case of Thorpe led by them to believe that such proceedings were merely temporary; but, on their asserting a right to acquiesced in by the court. It is to be presumed, howv. Hughes (3 My. & C. 732) was cited, and its doctrine do the acts objected to, the plaintiff filed his bill with-ever, from what is stated in the report of Ashby v. Jackout any further delay. On both points Lord Langdale, M. R., thought the plaintiff entitled to an injunction: afterwards an appeal motion was heard by the Lord Chancellor, who directed the opinion of a court of law to be taken on the construction of the act. The report does not state whether his Lordship continued the injunction in the meantime.

son, that that case fell more properly under the rule in White v. Steinwacks*, (19 Ves. 83), as it would seem, that, in Ashby v. Jackson, the fact, that the discovery would be of no use to the plaintiff in his defence at law, appeared upon the pleadings, if at all.

* See these cases distinguished, Drewry on Injunctions, 378.

Since the cases of Mellor v. Cresswell and Howard v. Cliffe, (3 Jur. 817), it has been held by Lord Langdale, M. R., in a case (Archer v. Hudson, 6 Beav. 474) where there was a common injunction obtained upon the answer being found insufficient; then an order to amend the bill, without prejudice to the injunction; and then amendment of the bill accordingly; that an order to extend the common injunction to stay trial might be granted. The motion was made on the 3rd July, and the commission-day was appointed for the 12th. His Lordship appears to have considered the case as distinguishable from Howard v. Cliffe, as he observed, that, if the authority of that case applied, he should refuse the motion. The report of Archer v. Hudson does not, however, state the grounds on which the court distinguished it from Howard v. Cliffe.

The rule, that, in support of a motion to extend, the affidavit of materiality will not do if made only by the plaintiff's solicitor, unless good reason is shewn why the plaintiff did not make it, has been supported in a recent case. (Scotson v. Gaury, 1 Hare, 99).

refused on the 2nd June (the day on which cause was to be shewn) to allow the plaintiff any further time, although the answer was of great length; so that it was manifestly out of all question that the two days could have been sufficient for the plaintiff to look into the answer to see whether exceptions should be taken to it. (Stanley v. Bond, 5 Beav. 175).

2. Of dissolving Special Injunctions. Where a plaintiff obtains an injunction upon affidavits, the defendant, although he might try the question by demurrer, is not under any obligation to do so, if he thinks, that, by moving to dissolve upon affidavits, he can place his case better before the court. (Barnesley Canal Company v. Twibill, 7 Beav. 19).

It has been doubted, whether, where a special injunction has been granted against several defendants, one of them can move to dissolve without bringing the others before the court. The ground of the doubt is, that, if the defendant moving should succeed, he materially changes the position of the other defendants. The court however, doubted, at the same time, whether, if present, the defendants not moving to dissolve could oppose the motion. (Harrison v. Harrison, 5 Beav. 131).

LAW APPOINTMENTS.

C. S. D.

In the same case, the plaintiff did not move to extend till the 2nd December, the trial being fixed for the sittings commencing on the 6th. It appeared that the action was brought on the 11th August; that the plaintiff, from the circumstances, must have known what was the cause of action, and nevertheless he did not file his bill till the 8th November: and even after that, he knew that proceedings were going on at law, and In our statement last week of the new Law Appointmight have got the common injunction on the 17th No-ments, we committed two or three errors, which we vember; instead of which he never moved for it till the now endeavour to rectify by inserting the changes in 24th. Under these circumstances, it was held, that his their correct form. delay would preclude him from obtaining an order to extend so near the time of trial, unless the answer was insufficient; and, the answer having been excepted to and found insufficient, the Vice-Chancellor looked into it to see whether the defendant had misconducted himself, by evasion in his answer, in which case his Honor thought he might, perhaps, set off such misconduct against the dilatoriness of the plaintiff. The answer was substantially sufficient, though technically insufcient, and, therefore, the motion was refused.

VI. Of dissolving Injunctions.

1. Of dissolving the Common Injunction. The case of Sharpley v. Perring (8 Sim. 603) was referred to in Bordinave v. Wadeson, (1 Coll. 432), in support of a special motion to dissolve at once the common injunction. The court refused the motion, with expressions of want of confidence in the accuracy of the report of the case of Sharpley v. Perring, which his Honor observed was stated to be ex relatione, with out stating by whom it was reported. It is to be regretted, that the special circumstances in Sharpley v. Perring are not stated in the report. In Bordinave v. Wadeson, there were no very special circumstances, and, therefore, Sharpley v. Perring was clearly no authority for departing in that case from the usual practice of first obtaining an order nisi. The observations of the court in Bordinave v. Wadeson must be taken, however, to throw much doubt on the authority of Sharpley v. Perring, for even the limited doctrine, that in any case (except cases of the class of Lacy v. Horneby, 2 Ves. & B. 291) the order nisi can be dispensed with in proceeding to dissolve the common injunction.

The terms of the order nisi to dissolve the common injunction are, that the injunction is to be dissolved unless the plaintiff, his solicitor having notice, shall, on a day (named in the order), shew to the court cause to the contrary; and these terms are considered to be inconsistent with the allowance of any further time to the plaintiff to shew cause. Therefore, where the answer was filed on the 30th May, and the same day the defendant obtained and served an order nisi, the court

Mr. Serjeant Talfourd and Mr. Serjeant Manning were appointed Queen's Serjeants. Mr. Serjeant Murphy and Mr. Serjeant Byles received Patents of Precedence.

James Humphry, Esq., J. Bacon, Esq., S. H. Walpole, Esq., and J. Rolt, Esq. were appointed Queen's Counsel in the order here put down.

Emperial Parliament.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Wednesday, July 15.

Mr. Hume moved the second reading of the Charitable Trusts Bill. As serious objections had been taken to this measure, he thought he should best fulfil the object in view by merely retaining those clauses which secured the accountability of those who had charge of public money. It was the duty of this House, after the expense which had been incurred in inquiries, to have some accounts available, that would shew how the revenues of each trust had been expended. It was not his intention to include the Bible Society, and other relithese only where the individuals were dead. The principle of gious trusts or charities where the founders were alive, but the bill was to secure the accountability of persons entrusted with public monies.

Sir G. Grey should not offer any opposition to the second reading of this bill; but the House must not suppose that this was a substitute for another bill, which had been thrown out in the other House, or for a more general measure.

Mr. Bernal recommended the honourable member to leave legislating upon the subject, which would be better done by the comprehensive measure referred to by the hon. Baronet.

Mr. S. O'Brien agreed with the hon. member who spoke last, that this measure might interfere with the comprehensive measure referred to by the Secretary of State, which, as Government. He moved that the bill be read a second time he (Mr. O'Brien) understood, was in the contemplation of the that day six months.

Mr. T. Egerton said, the great bodies who were the trustees of those charities either considered themselves unaccountable, or acted as if they thought so, and applied the monies to their own private purposes. He knew of charities that were so managed. When the House came to consider the great and com

prehensive measure, let them come to the consideration of it with all the accounts before them.

Mr. Spooner thought that the House ought to be clearly informed how far it was intended to go; they ought to be informed whether or not they were to have all the different foundations brought within the scope of the bill; for example, were they to have King Edward's foundations comprehended within its operation? The House, he hoped, would bear in mind that all the larger charities were subject to the Court of Chancery. He would not say that the House did not possess the right to interfere, because Parliament could do anything; but he did think that a bill of that importance ought to be introduced into the House of Commons upon the responsibility of the Queen's Government.

Sir D. L. Evans could not help remarking, that it might be all very well to say that the Court of Chancery possessed the authority necessary for taking cognizance of these matters; but it should be remembered that proceedings in the Court of Chancery were inordinately expensive. To him it appeared that the objections to the present bill were by no means well | founded it was merely a bill to enable the Government, the Legislature, and the country, to obtain clear and exact information upon subjects of great public importance. Every one acknowledged that great abuses were committed, and the bill then before the House was merely a preliminary step, the purport of which was to clear the way for a more comprehensive

measure.

Sir J. Graham referred to the bill brought in by Lord Lyndhurst. That bill, he said, required that trustees should furnish annual accounts, but it made certain exceptions, and he thought that similar exceptions ought to be contained in any bill introduced upon the subject. That bill, unhappily, as he thought, was defeated in the other House of Parliament; and thereupon the hon. member for Montrose inquired of him (Sir J. Graham) if he would consent to a single enactment requiring trustees of charities to present to Parliament a statement annually of their accounts. He told the hon. member that which he then repeated, namely, that he very much regretted the loss of the larger measure, adding at the same time, that a single enactment, requiring the annual production of accounts would, in his opinion, prove a salutary check upon the conduct of trustees in the administration of charities. The right hon. member proceeded to say, that, if it were found that the trustees of certain charities had proceeded in a manner the effect of which was to defraud those whom the donors intended should have the benefit of those charities, then, surely, it would not be an undue assumption of power if a statute were enacted compelling the annual preparation and publication of accounts, setting forth the funds which the trustees received, and the mode of their application. Such was the object of the measure then before the House, and so far, at least, it must be admitted that the bill was not too comprehensive.

After a few observations from several other hon. members, the House divided
