The appellant and the respondents 1 & 2 stated that the matter has been settled amicably and that the terms of compromise are reduced into writing in the form of a memorandum of compromise and that the memorandum of compromise signed by both the parties and their respective learned counsel is filed along with the subject interlocutory applications requesting to record the compromise and dispose of the appeals in terms of the compromise. When the terms of the compromise are readover and explained to the parties present, they admitted the same and stated unanimously that in view of the settlement arrived at between the
