The Attorney-General v The Ironmongers’ Company: 26 Jan 1847

A charity scheme was directed. The relator, without the sanction of the Master, advertised and incurred expense in obtaining information. The Court refused to allow the ordinary costs, but, on the ground of its having proved useful to the charity, allowed the money out of pocket bona fide expended.
