Re-advertisement is not required upon substitution of a petitioner where the original petition was properly advertised and creditors/contributories were informed of the class remedy; substitution does not alter that notice function. Consequently the hearing of the petition could proceed (subject to adjournment for evidence). On costs, the original petitioner (Jason) must pay the Company's costs except that Jason’s costs of the original petition and of the advertisement are to be treated as costs in the petition.
