When the Btlpendinry Magistrate took it from the Sheriff he changed the date from July 4th to November 12th but it appears he neglected to re. seal. “A: I am enabled to decide this case without considering this point, it will be umocouary at present to 4,. ten lne what if any effect this 0m . s13‘? may have had on the legallisy of the proceedings taken by the City against the plaintiffs lands," said the Judge.

The Judge said that this point wal not well taken. The tribunal designat-
