SUPREME COURT A MEMORANDUM OF LEASE In the Supreme Court yesterday morning His Honour Mr. Justice Chapman heard an originating summons to determine certain questions arising under a memorandum of lease. The partios to the summons wero: —Percy iiwart AVmgfield, fanner, of Hukanui, plaintiff, and John Allen Rayne, mail contractor, of Carterton. Mr. T. M. Page, of Eketahuna, appeared for Wingiield, while Mr. E. F. Hadfield appeared for Rayne.
From the facts placed before the Oourt, it appeared that Rayne, who was formerly a farmer at Eketahuna, granted to Wihgiield a sub-lcaso for seven years of 200 acres of l.i.p. lands. The lands were subject to a mortgage to the State Advances Superintendent (securing £500) and to a second mortgage tosono John Orr (securing £2000), and Rayno denied that Wingiield had any right to require that he (Rayne) should obtain the consent- of the second mortgagee (Orr) to the sub-lease. The Court was therefore asked to define Wingfield's rights in connection with the sub-lease.
After hearing .argument, His Honour reserved decision.
