The court found on evidence and documents that Zhong Shan (the defendant) was a principal under both the shipbuilding and commission agreements, accepted the commission arrangements (including implied tonnage-based calculation), paid the first instalment and unlawfully refused the second; the agency defence failed and plaintiff entitled to judgment for the unpaid commission with interest and costs; leave to amend the statement of claim was properly granted.
