The defendant, McNeil, obtained judgment against Mr. Churchill and seized the personal property in the hotel in execution thereof. In the plaintiffs action claiming damages for trespass by such seizure the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia held that Mrs. Churchill never had title to the personal property nor possession thereof other than her husband's possession and dismissed the action.
The Supreme Court of Canada after argument reserved judgment and on a-later day dismissed the appeal with costs.
