A dispute between two members of the Jewish Recreation Club during "which the hon. secretary, R. J. Moalem, brought an action against J. Nissim, for the return of two tennis poles valued at $30 occupied the Assistant Judge, Mr. Peter - Grain, at H. M. Supreme Court on Monday, for over an hour.
Plaintiff said the borrowed posts had now been returned to him, and he therefore only applied for costs. Defendant denied ever having borrowed or returned the property. He had asked Mr. Whit-gob, who was on the committee, for the loan of the poles. Mr. Whitgob had told him to borrow them from plaintiff, so defendant merely secured them from plaintiff as Mr. Whitgob's agent. The posts were the property of the club.
Henry Whitgob corroborated this statement, adding that the club property had been placed in his custody. He had returned these two poles to Moalem, who was the hon. secretary, to avoid if possible the' mention of the club's name in Court.
