WILLIAMS VS. THE SAVAGE MANUFACTURING CO. 427
upon that subject is therefore considered as final. These
examples are deemed sufficient.
That this cause has not progressed as speedily as the com-
plainant may desire, and that further delays may be encoun-
tered before it is brought to a final conclusion, may be a subject
of regret. But sitting here to administer the law according to
my best judgment, I cannot permit these considerations to
operate so as to take from the defendant rights and privileges
which the Legislature, in its wisdom, and the Court of Appeals,
in expounding the will of the Legislature, have secured to him.
An order will be passed, overruling the exceptions.
[After the amended answer was filed, and the case was about
to be sent to the Auditor for an account and further proof, an
order was passed, on the 6th of September, 1851, by consent
of parties, that defendant should bring into Court all its books
of accounts, other than those of recent transactions, which are
understood to be those opened or commenced on or about the
year 1842, and that complainant have leave to inspect said
excepted books at the counting-house of the town agent, at all
reasonable times, and reserving liberty to him to apply for
further orders in respect of said excepted books, if he shall be
deterred or impeded in the exercise of his privilege of such exa-
mination, or if from other causes, such application shall be
deemed necessary by him. The books so ordered to be brought
in, are all the books kept either in town or at the factory.
Under this order, the books prior to 1842 were brought into
Court, and on the 29th of January, 1852, the complainant
filed a petition, stating that he had been permitted from time
to time to examine the excepted books kept by the town agent,
but in so doing, he has been subjected to many and great
annoyances, which tend much to thwart his purposes, and to
delay this cause, and that he has been prevented from making
any examination whatever into the books kept at the factory,
although it was well understood at the date of said order, that
he proposed to examine them, and that they would be brought
t0 the office of the town agent, or some facility tendered him
