1. This is an appeal by all the Defendants from an order of the Master granting summary judgment to the Plaintiff in the amount claimed in the Statement of Claim. The case is very simple. But unnecessary and wholly meritless defences had been raised by the Defendants to resist an order for summary judgment. In the course of the argument before me, much had been abandoned by Counsel for the Defendants. Only two points were raised. I will deal with them very shortly.
