..... 3rd October 1922, a Division Bench of this Court ordered that, under the provisions of Order 22, Rule 8, Civil P.C. the appellants should deposit security for the costs incurred by the plaintiff-firm both in the trial and the appellate Courts to the amount of ₹ 1,400 within a period of three weeks from the date of the said order. This order had been complied with and security for the required amount has been deposited within the prescribed period in the trial Court. 3.

In Tancred v. Delagoa Bay and East Africa Ry. Co.

It was held that the transaction was substantially a contract to appropriate what may be realized under the final decree first towards the repayment of the money advanced. It was further held that, though at the date of the agreement, the fund out of which the advance was to be repaid had not come into existence and, though it might possibly never come into existence afterwards, yet that circumstance is not sufficient to prevent the charge taking effect against the fund when it subsequently came into existence.
