" THE new HE HAD NO | RIGHT TO PENSION | Judgment of Chief Justice li Meredith In Waddell- Queen's Pension Action. In his written judgment dismis- sing the action by the widow of the ll 1ate Dr. John Waddell against Queen's University to establish a right to a pension of $1,000 a year during her life, 'or to recover $256,- 000 damages by reason of the re- fusal to recognize such right, Chief Justice Meredith says: "Neither the defendant's principal officer nor any member of the board had any kind of power to put the de- fendants under any such obligation. It would be extraordinary if they had; or, if having it, it had been exercised, having regard to 'financial consideration,' and that is enough to dispose of the contention based upon the suggestion that some of them did; but it would not be just to them to leave the matter there; and I can: not but feel, upon the whole evi- dence, that none of them ever so undertook or did or said anything that with any degree of reason could be taken as an indication of any kind of support of the claim made in this action. "It is an old story that everyone should be just before being gener- ous: and there are few universities in this country which could be just to their students if they were gen- erous after the fashion contended In attractive pack- 'ages by Neilson, Wil- cco -- "i.

"Although it is not necessary even to refer to it, it is satisfactory to have evidence .in writing of the plaintift's husband which make plain the conclusion-to which all the rest of the evidence has led. Terms of Resignation. "In the 'résignation' in writing of tho plaintiff's husband, he made cer- tain demands, compliance with which he insisted upon if the defendants wished to retain his services. His communication was, as he knew' all things respecting his employment should be, with the board of trustees. One of his demands thus made was that he should have a retiring allow- ance when he retired from the ser- vice. No claim for a pension for his widow or family 'was made or at any time suggested by him. The demands were made in a somewhat peremp- tory manner, and were, mainly, for il] that reason, no doubt, peremptorily rejected and his resignation at once accepted. "He was subsequently re-employ- ed and some time afterwards got ii | some promotion and some increase 1] in his salary; but there is not a tittle of évidence of his ever having after- wards demanded, requested, or sug- gested a pension for himself or for any of his family. Ah a "In regard to the allegations of I] deceit on the part of some of plain- tift's hushand's fellow officers in the defendant's service--that the con- cealed from him the fact that Car- negle Foundation had discontinued grants of pensions to those employ- ed by the defendants--and that by reason of such deceit he continued in the defendant's service; without stopping to consider how that could affect the defendants, if at all, I can but find and say that I cannot see even a shadow of suspicion of any such misconduct on the part of any- ons, in any of the evidence adduced upon this trial. "In regard to the assertion that the defendant's officers did mot do all they should have done in seeking a pension from the Carnegie Founda- tion for the plaintiff; no obligation in law rested upon them to do any- thing; and the fact is that they earnestly and perseveringly sought ald for the plaintiff." x Can't Enforce Charity. With regard to Mr. Calder's plea that Dr. Waddell was qualified for a pension under the Carnegie Foun- |. dation, Chief Justice Meredith points out that those who alone had the he was so qualified.

If Dr. Wadderl knew all about it he would have known that in which class he was, that even the younger men had to pay 5 per cemt. for their benefits. The judge re- been unable to take advantage of the scheme as he found it difficult to make ends meet and was unable to make usual arrangements for life insurance. "He may have had some hope," continues the judgment, "that some scheme might some time be devised and adopted that might be of some good to him; 'but it must have been a very forlorn hope. "He lived in the knowledge that his only reQuest regarding a pension was one for a pension for himself; and hé lived and died in the knowl- edge that he had no right to any pension."
