PRESUMPTION OF DEATH.
Re William Arthur Evans, junior.
In the matter of the trusts of the will of William Arthur Evans, late of Goulburn, pawnbroker, who died in 1890, application was made on behalf of Anne Saxton, Arthur Evans Balgowan, Veronica Mary Barry, and Charlotte Ida Balgowan that the Court should assume the death of William Arthur Evans, Junior and order that certain land at Goul- burn be vested in the applicants for an estate in fee simple as tenants in common. On the land at Goulburn had been erected a hotel known as the Australian Hotel which in October, 1924 was de-licensed. William Arthur Evans, Junior, the life tenant who was born in 1859 executed in 1896 a mortgage over the hotel this passing to an assignee who later died. Prolonged litigation followed, and in September last an order was made directing payment out of certain compensation money to the present applicants subject to decision on the question of whether the life tenant was dead. William Arthur Evans, junior who lf living would be 73 years of age, disappeared many years ago. Search had been made for him without success.
An affidavit by Catherine Hobbs of Vau- cluse stated that the deponent did not know the missing man but that while in company with Berenice Oates in Cowper-street Bondi Junction, in 1929 or 1930, she saw a man whom Berenice Oates (his sister-in-law) said was her brother-in-law. When spoken to, he said that his name was Evans but that his Christian name was Phillp. An affidavit by Mrs Oates said that she positively identi-fied her brother-in-law.
Having heard further evidence, his Honor said that he thought he ought to presume that Evans was dead. The evidence was strongly against the idea that it was him who was seen at Bondi Junction.
An order was made vesting the land in the applicants (beneficaries under the will), costs as of submitting defendants to each respon- dent out of the fund.
Mr. H. S. Nicholas (Instructed by Messrs. Hughes, Hughes, and Garvνn) appeared for the beneficaries after extinction of the life interest; Mr. David Wilson (instructed by Messrs. Betts and Son, of Goulburn, through their Sydney agents, Messrs. Pigott, Stinson, Macgregor, and Palmer) for the mortgagee of the life interest: and Mr. W. Hutton (in-structed by Mr. Cecil O'Dea) for the trustee of the life interest.
