““That Cameron himself could have bought up the outstanding' tax title and used it against his client nobody will contend. Neither can it be tolerated that, upon information furnished by him, and by money forwarded through, if not supplied by him the title has been vested in his wife and her minor brother. To permit him, by such easy evasions, to accomplish indirectly that which the law forbids him to do directly would be a reproach to any system of jurisprudence; nor can. members of his family be allowed to reap the benefit of his breach of professional duty. ’ ’”
