NOTES.

SERVICE GENERALLY.

Service must be personal, unless substituted or other service has been ordered under O. 1x, 2, except in the cases mentioned in rr. 3, 8, and 9 of that order, and O. XLVIIIA, 6, 7; and see Dan. 39, 40, 280 et seq.

The original writ need not be produced unless demanded, but if not shown on demand, the proceedings under it may be set aside: Phillipson v. Emanuel, 56 L. T. 858.

The mere handing of a writ in an envelope to a person who is not informed as to the nature of the document is not good personal service: Banque Russe v. Clarke, W. N. (94) 203; Dan. 281.

A writ of summons, though specially indorsed, is not a pleading within O. LXIV, 11, and may be served at any hour of the day: Murray v. Stephenson, 19 Q. B. D. 60.
