Brown v. Byrne

It is improper for a Master to perform any official act, as Master, in a cause in which he is *454solicitor, or a partner of the solicitor. This, of itself, is sufficient cause for setting aside the sale, before it has been confirmed. But it appears the mortgaged premises were sold for $100 only, while Ensworth swears they are worth $1,300, and there is nothing before the Court showing he has placed too high a value on them.

Motion granted.
