JUDGMENT Sale, J. - I think the Official Receiver and the Trustee in Bankruptcy are only entitled to appear in so far as they apply to carry out the order in aid: they have no locus standi to oppose the application for personal discharge, which is a proceeding under the Indian Act. The only question is as to the form the public examination shall take. My attention has been drawn to the procedure previously adopted in a similar case, where the Court here appointed a Commissioner, upon petition in the ordinary way, to fake the evidence for transmission to the English Court. I prefer to follow that procedure rather than constitute myself a Commissioner to take the evidence in Court. Let the insolvents be sworn and discharged, they undertaking to attend on the public examination.
