The master is entitled to recover teh damages sustained by reason of a servant deserting his employ.

Joint Stock Companies.
The follwoing remarks, except as hereinafter mentioned, apply to join stock companies, whether they are incorporated under the Dominion of Ontario Joint Stock Company Act. A Joint stock company is a partnership consisting of a large number of persons incorporated under some statute with the object of carrying on some specified purpose or business, and having a capital divided into equal shares which are transferable by the respective holders thereof without the consent of the other share-holders. One or more shares are held by each shareholder, and in proportion to the shares held by him he is entitled to vote at meetings of the company, and to participate in the profits of the company. There are two kinds of shares or stock, viz., common and preferred or preference. By common shares or stock is meant stock which entitles the owner of it to a pro rata division of profits. By preferred or preferenes stock is meant stock which entitles its owner to dividends out of the net profins before or in preference to the holders of the common stock, and which may in addition entitle its owner, in the event of the winding up of the company, and if Shere is any capital to be returned to the shareholders, to have the amount paid in on his shares returned to him before the common umon stockholder receives the amount paid in by him. Cumulative preference stock is preference stock which entities the holder thereof to have any deficiency of dividends in any year made good to him out of the profits of subsequent years. Non-cumulative preference stock does not give the holder thereof this right, so that the holder of such stock can only look to the year's profita for his dividend for that particular year. Preferred stock redeemable by the company is pret erence stock issued by a compsay by a company which has the right to buy hack that stock at any stipulated time. Shareholders of preference stock possess all the rights and are subject to all the liabilities of other share holders their only privilege is their preference over the other shareholders with respect to dividends and capital A joint stock company is known in law as a corpor ation aggregate. The members of the company and their successors form hut one person in law, a person different from that of any of the members, though composed of them. Each shareholder is responsible for the debts of the company to an amount equal to that not pald up on his shares; so that, in case of the insolvency of the com pany, he stands to low the amount paid in by him, and in addition he may be called upon to pay the amount still unpaid on his shares. Under The Ontario Joint Stock Company Act (which applies to companies incorporated under that act), no person holding stock in the company as an executor, administrator, guardian or trustee, is personally Habile as a shareholder; but the estate and funds in his hands of the party represented by him is liable. The Dominion Joint Stock Company Act (which applies to companies incorporated under that act), is somewhat similar, and provides that no person holding stock in |
executor, etc., represents the stock held by him at all meetings, and can vote as a shareholder. Every person who has pledged his stock represents the same at all meetings, and can vote as a shareholder. All questions proposed at meetings of the shareholders for teh consideration of the shareholders are determined by the majoirty of votes, and the chairman presiding at such meetings has the casting vote in case of an equality of votes.

A similar observation will apply to a com pany incorporated under the laws of any of the Provinces of the Dominion of Canada, regard being had to the proper officers in that behalf for the purposes of certi deation. If the application be on behalf of a company incorpor ated under the laws of Great Britain and Ireland, the copy of the metnorandum and articles of association produced must be certified to be a true copy by the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies at London, Edin burgh or Dublin, as the case may be.

the company as an executor, administrator, tutor, curator, guardian or trustee for aty person named in. the books of the company as being so represented by him, shall be personally Hable as a sharebolder; but the estate and funds in his hands of the party repre sented by him shall be liable. It should be stated that under both acts a company is hot bound to ses to the performance by the trustee of any trust in respect of any share; and the receipt of the sharebolder, in whose name the same stands in the hooks of the company, is a valid discharge to the com pany for any dividend or money payable on the shares. No person holding stock as collateral security is personally subject to Hability as a sharebolder; but the person pledging such stock is considered as holding the same, and is Habie as a shareholder. Calls on shares must be promptly paid on the day appointed for payment, and a shareholder is liable for interest thereon at the legal rate after default in payment. If the call is not paid at the appointed time the directors may, if they prefer, forfeit the shares, which will thereupon became the property of the company, and can be disposed of by the company. The Dominion Joint Stock Company Act provides that, notwithstand ing the forfeiture, the holder of such shares which have boun forfeited will continue llable to the then creditors of the company for the amount unpaid on such shares at the time of forfeiture, less any suns subsequently received thereon. The shares of stock are transferable on the books of the company in the manner prescribed by the letters patent or the by-laws of the company. No transfer of shares by a shareholder is valid for any purpose, so far as the company or are concerned, until entry thereof is made in the transfer book int, until such transfer is entered, both transferrer and transforce are each liable on the shares to the company and Its cruditors. Such a transfer, however, though not so entered, is valid as between the transferrer and trans-feree. The Dominion Joint Stock Company Act, however, provides that the entry of the transfer is not necessary in the cam case of companies whose stock is llated and dealt with on any recognized stock exchange by means of serip commonly in use, endorsed in blank, and trans terable by delivery, whilch constitutes valid transfers: the scrip holder is not, however, entitled to vote upon shares until they are registered in his name in the books of the company. No transfer of shores, whereof the full amount has not been paid in, can be made without the consent of The directors, and whenever any transfer of shares not Pally paid in has been made with such consent to a person who is not apparently of sufficient means to fully pay up such shares, the directors are personally liable to creditors of the company to the same extent as the transferring shareholder, but for such transfer, would have been. No share is transferable until all previous calls are fully paid: The Dominion Joint Stock Company Act further provides that the directors may deoline to register any transfer of shares belonging to any shareholder who is Indebted to the company. SHAREHOLDERS' VOTES AT GENERAL MEETINGS.Every shareholder is entiteld to as many votes as he holds shares, and he may vote either in person or by proxy, but if he is in arrear in respect of any call he cannot vote. No transferee of shares, if his transfer is not registered in the transfer book, can vote. Every |
grant of incorporation, and that at least ten per cent. of the nominla capital of the compnay has been subscribed. j) Signatures to the petition and memorandum of agreement and tosck book must be witnessed and proved by teh affidavit or statutory declaration of persons who are not petitioners, or directly interested in the formation of the company. k) Signatures by attorney must be made under a specific, not general, power of attorney, duly executed. l) At least two signatures must be written on the leaf, or page, which contains the prayer of the petition. m) The facts stated in the petition must be established by affidavit or statutory declaration.
