Relies on Ervin v. Oregon Ry. & Nav. Co.

Decided 1886-10-15

¶1Co h pokation — Action—Parties.

¶2On petition for rehearing by Mr. H. Villard.

¶3See 27 Fed. Rep. 625.

¶4Butler, Stillman é Hubbard, for plaintiff.

¶5Holmes é Adams, for defendant.

¶6Wallace, J.

¶7I have carefully examined the brief and authorities submitted by the counsel for Mr. Villard on the petition for a rehearing, but am unable to see liow he, as a promoter and abettor of the acts which have worked an equitable wrong to the complainants, can escape responsibility to the same extent with the corporation he rep*834resented. The petition for a rehearing has been considered on the merits; that is, as though the cause were here upon' a rehearing.

¶8An order is directed denying the prayer of the petition.
