Plaintiff would not allow the bailiff to go t'irough tho place aid make an inventory, and on the nigh: of the fire, the bailiff was locked up in one of the rooms. Mr Juetioo Cooper, in giving liis dooision, said the ease was a very unsatisfactory one. The defendant company had not proved that any goods had been removed, and His Honor was not satisfied there was fraud. He camo to tho conclusion that a verbal proposal had been made by plaintiff and had beon vorbally refused by the Yorkshire Company. The answer to the defendant company on that point was a mis-statement, and so far as Critchley was concerned, that voided the proposal. He gave judgment for the defendant company with costs on the lowest scale.
