the master First one side and then the ottier was not ready and thus the case failed to progress Last week Chancery Wait discovered the order of reference had not been enn tered for record Then he declined to proceed further and the case before him was declared off This did not balk the zeal of the attorney general He served another notice on the defendants citing them to appear in Judge
