Norwich Provident Co., Bacon, V.-C., 21 May, 1878. B. 1241.

Although it is not unusual to make an order as above, it would seem that no order is necessary. Rule 60 gives liberty to attend, subject to the provisions of Rule 62, and accordingly some of the Chief Clerks decline to make orders as above. It seems that the examination under s. 115 of the Act of 1862 is not to be considered a proceeding within the meaning of the rule. Grey's Brewery Co., 25 C. D. 400; 32 W. R. 381; 50 L. T. 14.

As to rights of persons entitled to attend, see Brampton Railway Co, 11 Eq. 428, in which case Bacon, V.-C., said, “Having under the rule the right to attend the proceedings, they have, as I read it, equal rights with those which a party to a suit would have, and those rights would include the right to crossexamine."
