1. ““The master erroneously sustained the objections to interrogatories 20, 28, 34, 38, 47, 49, 50, 51, and 52, propounded to the witness Henry King, and to interrogatories 17, 21, 44, 48, 65, 72, 75, 76, and 81, propounded to Aaron Grant. While some of these interrogatorios do not seem to have been of much importance, others wore, and the general result of the master’s rulings has been to deprive the defendants of testimony which was clearly competent and material.
