The alleged oral declaration of trust was void under Statute of Frauds s.7, there was no probative evidence of a service tenancy, and the plaintiff was therefore sole beneficial owner; on the disputed accounting the judge made an arbitrary assessment (half of the rents in the accounts for the period) due to evidentiary uncertainty and awarded sums accordingly, plus injunction and costs.
