Judgement
<p>BUTLER LLOYD, ACTING C.J., NIGERIA, BROOK AND JEFFREYS, JJ.</p><p>We are of opinion that there is no substance in this appeal. It is abundantly clear that the conveyance sought to be set aside was made in professed exercise of the power of sale conferred by the Act of 1881 and we are not concerned with the circumstances which led up to the execution of this conveyance. </p><p>The protection afforded to the purchaser by section 21 (2) of the Act is absolute and the appeal fail and is dismissed, with costs assessed at ten guineas to first respondent and ten guineas to second and third respondents.</p>
