The application to vary the costs order nisi is dismissed and the original costs order nisi is made absolute because the court found the plaintiff's proceedings were in substance an adverse/hostile claim rather than an application properly connected to the administration of the estate; the defendants' conduct did not justify depriving them of their costs given the explanations and responsiveness shown, and the benefits said to flow from the litigation did not justify departing from the usual costs rule.
