I National flank of Wales. The Master of the Rolls, the President of the Probate Division, and Lord Justice Romer, had before them on Wednesday, the appeal of Mr. John Cory, of Cardiff, from a judgment of Mr. Justice Wright, of the 7th of December last, upon a misfeasance summons, taken out by liquidator of the bank, for the purpose of having it deter- mined to what extent, if any, Mr. Cory ought to be held responsible for the failure of the bank., Sir E. Clarke, at the commencement of his open- ing statement, was asked by the Master of the Rolls whether the case could be brought to an end by Saturday, as after that the Court would for a time be differently constituted. The learned council replied that he was unable to give a pledge to that effect, but he would do ,r5 his best to shorten the case. Sir Edward Clarke said it was an appeal by Mr. John Cory, from a judgment of Mr. Justice Wright, upon a misfeasance summons, which the learned judge had found against Mr. Cory, upon one point. The misfeasance charged was of three kinds first, the payment of dividend out of capital; secondly, the making or sanctioning of improper advauces to the directors out of the fuuds j of the company, whereby a loss had accrued and thirdly, the sanctioning of improper advances to customers, and allowing overdrawn accounts and debts to continue where it was reported that the debtor was insolvent, or otherwise unable to repay, j The court adjourned until Thursday.
