On the evidence the court accepted the affirmation of Kan and contemporaneous documents showing the 1943 Agreement and 1946 Conveyance were the same transaction; there was no evidence Madam Wan paid the purchase money and she acted as nominee only, so the beneficial interest belonged to Yip (through his deceased father) and the court declared that Madam Wan held the Lands on trust for Mr Yip and ordered the legal title to be vested in Yip's Estate under Trustee Ordinance s45(e).
