        vs             }
Charles W. White Et al }
               This cause came on to be heard before me on
the 10th Feby AD 1899 on the motion of defendant C.W. White
by his Solicitor for final hearing on the Bill Answer & other
pleadings, and also on the motion of complainant by B.A. Thrash

White, resists the motion to extend the time for taking tes
timony and appointment of a Master, The defendant Jones

to the Complainants motion, but as his answer practically
admits the allegations of the Bill as amended there does
not seem to be any need for testimony as to him. The Bill
was filed on the 6th Sept 1893, and after various amendments
thereto, and other proceedings a replication to answer was
filed August 1st 1898, no application for appointment of a Mas
ter has been made until now, and the only explanation of the
delay is contained in the affidavit of Mr C.L. Fildes the then
solicitor for complainant, the first question to be determined is
does this explanation furnish a reasonable ground for extend

have the cause heard without unnecessary delay. I do not
think the affidavit comes up to The Rule, and the motion
to extend the time and to appoint a Master is denied
Taking up the motion of defendant C.W. White for final hear
ing - and now after careful consideration of the Bill with
its amendments & other pleadings I am of opinion that the
