Muir v Thompson and Others: HL 28 Feb 1876

Held (aff. judgment) that mandates bearing to be used at a meeting of the Parochial Board of a parish, to be held on 2d August or any subsequent day to which the said meeting might be adjourned, were validly used at a meeting held on a later day for the same purpose, although there had been no meeting on 2d August, and consequently no adjournment. Held, also, that an alteration by the printer of the date originally appointed in the mandate did not invalidate such mandate.
