Each member paid a certain weekly or monthly contribution to the general funds of the society, and in consideration of thia payment wait entitled to certain benefits nnder a cer- tain condition of things. The charter or agreement of 26th April, 1876, was a contract entered into by all the mem- bers of the society, and each member had a bona fide and tangible interest in the funds of the society, so long as he had not forfeited them. The constitution of the society determines the rights of every member. Eaeh member is entitled to a weekly allowance from the funds of the so- ciety while sick ; to asum of |80 on the death of his wife, and on the death of a member, his widow is entitled to the sum of |70 to defray his funeral expenses; ^and theri^ are other subsidiary Ix^nefits attached to membership. The Court will see that this is a solemn contract entered into between the parties, which cannot be violated at the mere will of even the majority. If the judgment of the Gonrt of jEteview is to be maintained, then those members who have violated this agreement are to have all, while those who wish to preserve it in its integrity sacrifice every^ thing. Those members who conserved the original charter were never asked by the respondents and their fiiends to become .members of the new body ; they were not asked to become parties to the new charter ; they never were notified to attend any of the meetings of the new society. According to the by-laws, each member is entitled to a notice dflEe'nMSelings. Thtft none was given to Xhi .4 â ; â¢&quo
