pursuant to adjournment

Letter from Thomas Wilson, acting in absence of the solicitor was received and read, expressing the opinion that 1st  If the title of the Leasor was good no subsequent conveyance can affect any rights acquired under the Lease.

2d  If the Lessee pays to another party (than the Leasor) unless with consent of the Leasor or by judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction he does it at his peril.

3d  The consent of the Leasor may be given by an order to the Lessee to pay to the subsequent purchaser a certain portion of the rent (which he considers the best method) or he may make an assignment of the Lease or a portion of it — or he may with consent of the Lessee cancel that portion of the Lease appertaining to the property sold, and the subsequent purchaser may make a new Lease for that portion bought.

* In view of the above opinion the Board is of opinion that the matter should properly be adjusted between the Trustees of 19th St. Church and Mr. Forrest.  But the Board thinks that if an agreement can be made between the parties Sixty Dollars ($60.00) per Annum would be an equitable portion to be paid to the Trustees of 19th St. Church for their share.
