The master lacked jurisdiction to conduct what amounted to a trial and to determine the parties' substantive rights without the parties' consent under Order 36, rule 1; the matter was a trial on affirmations with cross-examination, not a mere interlocutory application, and the master's decision was set aside and the plaintiff's appeal allowed.
